I guess, rather than getting you to think about what progressive taxation means, I wanna see where this goes....

90%. My final answer. Your move....

Who said I supported Obama? What does "support" mean to you?

Blank doesnt want to say "45% would be too much" because he knows if Obama raised it to 46% he would still be ok with it.... or anything else Obama does. Blank always leaves the escape door open.
Im not going to say 45% is too much because I dont pretend that a tax percentage exists in a vacuum. Theres more than just a couple digits that make up what people get taxed, and fairness is a completely subjective issue.

Does it completely blow your mind that rich people used to be taxed at 90%???

If you told me tomorrow i had to pay $100 more a week in taxes, id probably quit working.
And this is the true beginning of the entitlement society.

BTW This is per year.
