No. And I don't think it's relevant. Post WWII America is an extremely unique time and place in world history. The effects of post Great Depression/WWII on America's socio/economic fabric do not relate at all to our current situation. They call it "cherry picking" Win...or back-fitting data until you find what you want, but without regard to context. Nice try, but a rather lazy attempt in my opinion. Do you have any idea what the tax rates were between, say, 1940 and 1980, when America had its biggest expansion economically?
