Dianna E. Anderson @diannaeanderson Jan 4 okay so a lot of (rich, white) folks are freaking out about what a 70% tax rate on the wealthy would look like and they're scared about it and s--- (even though it's literally what rich baby boomers already dealt with). SO LET'S DO THE MATHH 1.6K 34K 80K Dianna E. Anderson @diannaeanderson Jan 4 Post WWII, the tax rate peaked at 94% on annual income over $200,000 ($3mil in 2018 dollars). In the decades following, it dropped to a marginal tax rate of 70% of all income over 200k/annually (again, 2-3mil in today's dollars, depending on year). Dianna E. Anderson-Φ @diannaeanderson , Jan 4 Here's a thing a lot of folks don't understand: we have a tax system in the US that only taxes money above the "bracket." So, say the cut off for a particular percentage is 250k and you made 254k last year. The entire thing wouldn't be taxed at the higher rate. Just the 4k. 146 t 5.3K 19K Dianna E. Anderson @diannaeanderson Jan 4 So this doesn't mean that all rich people would suddenly have to give up 70% of their income. Thanks to the way tax brackets work, they would only be taxed at the rate for the money above the cut off. So it isn't a 70% flat tax-which the GOP are depending on you misunderstanding.
