For the second point, my claim was not false except for off by 3% points. This topic is on federal income tax, not state and local sales and use taxes. That is another topic. As stated, the first tax bracket threshold was drastically increased for the 1986 tax act, to the benifit of these lower wage workers. Prior to that, a portion of these 47% were paying tax.
the way you originally stated it was that they pay no tax. also, there's a portion of that 47% that makes above $500,000 that pays no income tax. it's not all just lower bracket.

Just separate capital income from land rent. Tax the hell out of land rents. Best of both worlds. You reward real capital and tax the rich leaches. Though that still leaves the monopoly capitalist, but one thing at a time.

NOT ONE MODEL from those promoting a tax on the rich is arguing that increasing tax on the rich will somehow result in increased market competition and lower prices. Not one. If you find one, let me know.

But I am afraid your post reveals your true intentions and argument - "the greedy *ssh*l*s accumulating ridiculuous amounts of wealth"..."we the customer suckers...pay for their swimming pools, mansions, and lavish vacations". Envy, jelousy, and anger should not be used as a reason to tax.
may i ask what "within reason" is? currently the top rate is 36% right? lowest it's ever been. does it need to be lower?
p.s. - i think the top rate isn't the only rate that needs to go up to solve our budgetary issues.

Like I said it's all theoritical anyways, we are assuming increases taxes would create vacancies in highly compensated positions, which I don't see any evidence of at all.
surgeons aren't factory workers. there's not really training. when my sister's group decides to hire another surgeon into their practice of 23 surgeons, they don't train him/her, they do it because of increased workload. there's also really no HR staff. they have an office manager, who's fixed cost is fixed whether it's allocated across 23 surgeons or 24 surgeons.

the assumption it would create vacancies is in response to the assumption people would stop working because they are making 61 cents on the dollar instead of 64 cents. i've seen surgeons firsthand, and i've never seen one turn down more money. i get the argument, but i've never met an individual who wouldn't work another hour if they got paid more to do it, when running a business. the tax rate has never come up with anyone i know. granted, if the bracket went from 35% to 50%, maybe people would care. but that's why having a large gap in a progessive system is not a good idea...

*sigh*...you won't let it go will you?
You are stretching the example with particularities to fit your argument. That's not the intention and you are missing the point. We could have substituted widgetsmakers, prezel makers, chiminy sweepers, if they were highly compensated! Forget about doctors, the medical industry is a highly regulated business, complex, partly socialized. You can throw a hundred variables in there to fit your, or my, argument. Lets stick with the original argument that even the poster of it admitted he had no data on (and I respect him for that admission) - will increasing tax for the highly compensated create a vacancy in that field that in turn will create competion and benifit the economy?

Exactly! I think your premise is fully documented in the book "Winner-Take-All Politics: How Washington Made the Rich Richer--and Turned Its Back on the Middle Class" by Paul Pierson and Jacob Hacker. The vast American economic inequality which has burgeoned since the 1970's is beyond dispute. This is largely the result of deliberate political decisions to shape markets in ways that benefit the privileged at the expense of everyone else. TARP and the bailouts are a good example of this at work. Even during the meltdown, the income for big Corporate lobbyists have skyrocketed, and that tells me a lot. The middle and lower classes don't have millions of dollars to pay off Congress to pass laws favorable to them.

The top tax rate does a lot of things to the economy. You can't run debt bubbles with a high top tax rate. Well you can it is just very much harder.

The interest of the dealers, however, in any particular branch of trade or manufacture, is always in some respects different from, and even opposite to, that of the public. To widen the market and to narrow the competition, is always the interest of the dealers. To widen the market may frequently be agreeable enough to the interest of the public; but to narrow the competition must always be against it, and can serve only to enable the dealers, by raising their profits above what they naturally would be, to levy, for their own benefit, an absurd tax upon the rest of their fellow-citizens. The proposal of any new law or regulation of commerce which comes from this order, ought always to be listened to with great precaution, and ought never to be adopted till after having been long and carefully examined, not only with the most scrupulous, but with the most suspicious attention. It comes from an order of men, whose interest is never exactly the same with that of the public, who have generally an interest to deceive and even to oppress the public, and who accordingly have, upon many occasions, both deceived and oppressed it.

-Adam Smith

Congratulations. You have mistakenly conflated wealth with earnings. They are not the same thing. The vast majority of millionaires are millionaires on paper only. They do not have millions of dollars in cash, rather they have millions of dollars in assets. Cash is an asset, but not all assets are cash. Their wealth is derived from their asset holdings, which would include real estate, stocks, bonds, precious metals and other tangibles and intangibles.

I know a millionaire. What did she do? Absolutely nothing.

Her father died and left her (an only child) 140 acres of land in Colerain Township. At the time, land sold for $1,800 per acre. About 12 years later the land was selling for $22,400 an acre. The land was worth $3,136,000 which made her a multimillionaire.

So, you would punish her for her evilness, and her brutality against the working man.

And what did she do? Nothing. She didn't wave a magic wand and chant a spell to make the land worth that much, nor did she bribe members of Congress, instead you made it worth that much. The oppressed Middle Class and its infantile desire to own 4,400 sq ft McMansions. That's what drove up the price of the land. The oppressed Middle Class did it, not her.

Okay, then the proper solution is to set up and establish proper controls and mechanism to prevent abuses, not engage in mass punishment and punish the vast majority who do not engage in such abuses.

It would be worth at least as much money as you made the rest of your life, and all of the assets you acquired, since you would not have been able to earn anything or acquire any assets unless that person saved the Earth.

You're only looking that $17/hour the average American gets as "pay." You aren't looking at the $28/hour the average American gets as "compensation." Based on the information from BLS, the total pay and compensation for the average American hourly worker is $48/hour.

The real question is, how much will you earn over the course of your life-time, and how many assets will you acquire precisely because that CEO gets $50 Million per year?

You could replace the $50 Million CEO with a $3 Million CEO, but then you might lose your job and your home would be foreclosed upon, and your credit rating damaged, your life-style impeded and degraded.

How much is that worth to you?

That's an absurd proposition.

In the first place, "fair" is highly subjective. There is no way to quantify or qualify "fair" because it is subjective. That which is "fair" is entirely dependent upon the knower, and for 100 people you would have 100 different views of what "fair" is and never be able to reach a consensus.

You also display an incredible ignorance of basic economics.

I might manufacture a product, and no matter what, no one on Earth will pay more than $5 for that product.

Because that is true, it places an inherent limitation on the amount of compensation for my employees.

I would like to pay you $75/hour to come into my fields and pick Bell Peppers, but I can't, because wholesalers will only pay me $1 for each Bell Pepper, because consumers will only pay between $1.49 to $1.99 for Bell Peppers.

And the peppers you pick aren't magically transported to the wholesalers, I have to pay truck drivers to take them to the wholesalers. And the more money I pay you, the more money I have to pay to Social Security, Medicare, unemployment insurance, worker's compensation insurance, your holiday pay and your vacation pay. So $75/hour ends up costing me almost $180/hour.

How do you know it is impossible? Perhaps that is simply a negative expectation.
No, it's just stupidity. Anyone who believes they deserve more in compensation is totally and completely free to seek such compensation, but that requires courage and the vast majority just don't have what it takes.

But it did happen. You had several recessions because of it and as a result, Kennedy lowered the tax rate from 91% to 70% and government revenues increased, jobs increased, the GDP increased and so on.

And you cannot make such a comparison because the tax code was structured differently.

You are unaware of the number of deductibles from adjusted gross income and tax credits. Earnings taxes paid to cities and counties was deductible, so was State income taxes, city, county and State sales taxes, property taxes, the federal excise tax on tires, the State and federal excise taxes on gasoline, the interest you paid on credit cards, the interest you paid on loans, the interest you paid on mortgages, losses of capital gains, and the number of items that could be counted as a "business expense" were absolutely ridiculous.

So while the paper tax rate was 91%, the real tax rate was closer to 30%-45%, depending on the skill of your accountant and your exact circumstances.

Even after Kennedy lowered the tax rate to 70% and made a few minor adjustments to the tax code, the real tax rate was still 35%-45%.

If you're going to compare tax rates then and now, then you must also compare tax codes.

Okay, then again the correct solution is to erect barriers to prevent them from doing so, not punish everyone, even those who do not abuse their power.

The vast majority of poor are poor because they make very unsound and unwise financial decisions their entire lives, and because they also make very bad life choices on a repeated basis.

Many also lack motivation. The highlight of their life is to punch the time-clock, go burn a blunt, down a 6-pack and watch Big Time Wrestling or surf the web for porno.

You're not going to gain wealth or advance doing that.

A Flat Tax is fundamentally unfair.

A lot of you seem to have extreme difficulty grasping a basic reality and truth, and that is that the cost of living and purchasing power parity in the United States is not uniform. It varies from city to city and State to State.

If this would be Luxembourg with 497,000 people and the cost of living and purchasing power parity were uniform through the entire gigantic country of Luxembourg, then you could levy a Flat Tax.

If this would be Denmark population 5.5 Million you could levy a Flat Tax because the cost of living and purchasing power parity are uniform. The same would be true in many other countries.

But this the United States.

You can rent a double-wide trailer on 4 acres of land for $200/month in Boseman, Montana.

Can you rent a double-wide on 4 acres of land in New York City for $200/month?

No, you cannot. Why not? Because the cost of living and purchasing power parity are not the same.

Wow, what a concept.

Someone earning $150,000 in Ohio is wealthier than someone earning $250,000 in New Jersey. How can that possibly be? Cost of living and purchasing power parity. While the poor fool in New Jersey earning $250,000 and living paycheck-to-paycheck, the person in Ohio earning $150,000 has more disposable income and is not living paycheck-to-paycheck and has a better, richer, fuller life-style than the poor slob in New Jersey could ever dream of.

It's funny how credit card banks rate cities/regions as High COL/Low PPP, High COL/High PPP, Low COL, Low PPP and Low COL/High PPP but the federal government is too stupid to see that.

A Flat Tax would be grotesquely unfair to those living in areas that have an high cost of living, because they already have very little precious discretionary disposable income, and a Flat Tax would take what little they have away from them.

That's because you are making a nonsensical comparison.

I and many others have repeatedly explained that the IRS Tax Code in the 1950s was vastly different that it is now.

It has been repeatedly shown that even though the theoretical tax rate was 91%, the real tax rate was 30%-45%, largely due to the extraordinary amount of deductions and credits one could take against adjusted gross income and assessed tax.

Houses in the 1950s were 1,200 to 1,600 sq ft. Today they are 4,000+ sq ft, so who has the higher standard of living?

America did not become a 2-car family until 1974, yet today many families have 3-5 cars, so who has the higher standard of living?

Again you display your ignorance of economics. The US did not fully complete industrialization until the 1960s. Prior to that time, your wages doubling about every 10 years or so would be expected. However, now that you are a post-Industrialized Nation, your wages will no longer double every 10 years. That, in addition to the fact that you have a global economy whether you like it or not, whether you want it or not, or whether you admit it or not, will result in a decline of wages, and there is nothing you can do about it.

No doubt you live in a fantasy world. In 1976, Pete Rose was the highest paid baseball player earning $660,000 per year.

That is 43 times more than $15,300, which was what, the average salary of the American worker? No, sorry, wrong. $15,300 was the maximum cap on Social Security wages, meaning once you reached $15,300 you no longer paid the Social Security tax. According to SSA, the average wage in 1976 was $9,226.48

In 1955, the average wages was $3,301.44 per year and Social Security capped at $4,200 per year. There were people earning $500,000 to $1 Million in 1955 and minimum wage was $0.75/hour.

Those are five full-service hospitals in the 3 Million population MSA that I live in now.

Capitalism is a property theory, and nothing more. Capitalism is not an economic system, nor could it ever be, since it is merely a property theory.

Capitalism has no bearing whatsoever on Supply & Demand, except to the extent that the government or others interfere and create impediments or restrictions that reduce either Supply or Demand.

Capitalism does not set or determine the prices of goods and services. That is determined by the economic system (Free Market, Command or Traditional) and by Supply & Demand.

Capitalism does not set or determine wages/salaries. Wages/salaries are a function of Supply & Demand for a particular skill-set and education level, and by the price consumers are willing to pay for a particular service or product.

A "Capitalist country" with stupid consumers and an apathetic stupid electorate is going to fail.

i don't agree with what the OP is saying entirely, but the question I ask is why is a CEO today worth so much more than a CEO 30-40 years ago, in comparison to the employee?
Gosh, I don't know.

Let's see. Proctor & Gamble. One facility. Then P&G opens and second and third manufacturing plant, all in Cincinnati, Ohio. Then P&G opens another and another, like the Kansas City Soap Plant.

More than 100 years after P&G opened their first facility, they have several hundred manufacturing facilities and offices in 37 different countries on 6 different continents employing literally an army of people.

All of those international laws, FNCs, treaties, tax laws, trade agreements, tariffs, duties, shipping across vast oceans, other legalities like the complexities of local tax laws (as opposed to the country's tax laws), and oh, all the customs and manners of a particular country or people.

Orchestrating this entire thing, this huge international scheme so that it runs efficiently and smoothly and makes profits for share-holders, so they can retire comfortably.

That's gotta be worth at least $8.35/hour right?

I mean anyone can do it. We're all born understanding international laws and FNCs, it's like inherent to our being or something.
