Yes. I pay far more in taxes now than I did when Clinton was in office.

You were a student. You were essentially unemployed. I pay more in taxes now then in 1993 when Clinton was president, because I made about $10K that year. I was in school. Duh.

But seriously, why do you think your taxes would have gone up with Gore in office? Especially if one or both houses of Congress was held by the republicans?

The rates would not have been reduced because Gore wouldn't have pushed it and congressmen are pussies (*with Bush, they had/have the out to blame him), if the rates weren't reduced, I would be paying more now than if Bush had won.

In 1986, 87 88 et al the naive libs were saying trhe same thing, except substitute Reagan for Bush. It's all cyclical. Except, thankful;ly, due to a few courageous Rs, Reagan and Bush43, the marginal rates have gone down and stayed close to down, despite the liberals attempts to the contrary.
