Richard, US corporate income taxes started in 1913, as did individual taxes. Any comparisons between the 20's and 90's must be done on a very macro basis due to all the structural changes. For example, companies used to actually pay cash dividends back then - now they just buyback stock and use it to compensate employees without recognizing the option as a wage cost. This has reached absurd levels in Silicon Valley where they even give telephone receptionists ISOs. No fool'in! -g-

In any event the current market is at nose bleed levels, the only question is by how much. And knowing precisely by how much does little good when trying to figure out when a mania will come to a screeching halt.

Regards, Ice
