160. And no one has suggested a return to those rates
What has been suggested is a return to the rates under Clinton. I would favor a rollback to the rates under Reagan which were a little higher. The point is we were sold (and by 'we' I mean a lot of the American people) on the idea that cutting taxes on the wealthy would increase prosperity for everyone. It hasn't worked. Time to rethink Milton Freidman. It was always a gimmick and it did not work.
