The right wing loons are trying to bring the country back to the 1950s down in the USA.  Funny thing is, when Truman and Eisenhower were president, you had top tax rates in the 85% range.  USA was the only industrialized nation that wasn't bombed flat, and American power reigned supreme.

America is down to 18% of the global economy, 25% of global purchases, the old days are never coming back, so get over it.  The only thing preventing the country from falling apart is that we might get a good socialist president in 2020 when Trump destroys America and makes it white balled in every corner of the planet
