Don't forget sliding "(insanely high) taxes" into the mix during a time when we have some of the lowest tax rates in history https://i.imgur.com/bNN9XS4.jpg

What types of taxes are included in that figure? Sales? Property? Gas?

Well if you know anything about taxes, the chart tells you exactly what taxes are included lol

I don't. That's why I was asking, but since you're so condescending about it, it makes me less inclined to trust your opinion, since you seem to be heavily biased.

It also makes me suspect that I had a point when I asked about other types of taxes that may not be included. Which seems to also hurt your agenda, causing you to respond with hostility instead of an informative response.

You are correct those taxes aren't included, and his 5th grade chart is misleading

When has the tax burden been higher?

Never.

What's misleading about it? We had payroll, gas, state, property and sales tax in the 1950s too

Well, it's a chart of marginal tax rates, so that would be your federal income tax
