NEWS FLASH!!!!! This just in...... John F. Kennedy died in 1963. His tax policies were based on conditions in the early Sixties from a different time and era of America. Ted Kennedy based his tax ideas on the current world he lived in - which was not an America of Chubby Checker doing the twist, Mickey Mantle, The Ronnettes, Marilyn Monroe and George Wallace and other things which no longer exist.
And for your information CG, Kennedy urged changes that resulted in the tax rate on highest earners placed at 70%. I am sure that many modern liberals would think all their dreams have come true if that would be put into law today.
Is that the tax policy you wanted Ted Kennedy to embrace?
