false. effective tax rate was lower not higher

>>00_hum+(OP)
That is false, at least for the top tax bracket (which is what I'm referring to).

Even the Tax Foundation, which is a biased source that is anti-tax in general states that the effective rate for the top bracket was 6% higher then than it is today (https://taxfoundation.org/data/all/federal/taxes-on-the-rich...)
