Putting taxes back the way they were before a certain president got into power is not a tax raise.

and reducing taxes back to the way they were before the 16th amendment would not be a tax cut.

man this libshit is easy!

"So you'd advocate raising taxes to the level before Kennedy?"

I think we should put them back to where Kennedy left them, 71% top rate from 91%. That was a tax adjustment that did actually RAISE revenues and reduce the debt - the ONLY one that has.

The OC wealthy, like Ten, can EASILY afford to fork over 71%. He may have to have his wife stop drinking Fiji water and start skiing in the states instead of Europe.
