I don’t think income taxes exceeded 90% of income. The top marginal rate could exceed 90%, that’s true. But not the overall tax rate.

Your post implies that there is a limit to how high taxes can go before it becomes “unjust” for the taxpayer. Is that a fair assessment of your position?

So if there is an upper limit, then what is that level? 50%? 60%?

Also, don’t forget there are more than just federal income taxes (state, local, sales, payroll, fees, gasoline, estate, etc.) Would you agree that including all taxes would be necessary to determine the “justness” of how much taxes get paid by an individual?
