During President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s administration (1953–1961), the top income bracket in the United States reached a marginal tax rate of 91%. However, it’s essential to clarify that this rate applied to individual income taxes for top earners, not corporate taxes. The corporate tax rate during Eisenhower’s time ranged from 30% to 52%. So, while the 91% rate garnered significant revenue from high-income individuals, it did not directly apply to corporations. ??
