The 29 cut was too late to have done any good, and frankly, was too small. And even had it not been, it was followed closely by a huge, wrongheaded tax increase in '32.

"Hoover is best remembered for the Revenue Act of 1932, the largest -- and most poorly timed -- peacetime tax increase in American history. By almost any reckoning, it made the Depression worse, not better" [imagine that]

Still making shit up?

Google "The Revenue Act of 1929". Or Hoover-Mellon Tax cut.

Beauty may be skin deep, but stupidity is to the bone.

The 1929 act never went into effect. I posted the site that shows all of the tax rate history. You should bother to read it.
