      But back during the New Deal… the US did. The corporate tax rates topped out at near 90%.

      This is just a historical fact.

      So, sometimes, they do in fact do that.

      Are you trying to make a counter argument, or just doing a rhetorical/snark dodge?

          … Tenses?

          Is English not your first language?

          I’m not doing a bit.

          I have made the point that governments can, and have done good things, that it’s silly to oversimplify to the extent that you are.

          Your response has been to entirely not deal with that at all, to throw bombastic rhetoric around, with no substance to back it up, just buzzwords, pretentiousness and oh also just mis quoting me, with more buzzwords.

          You argue like a hexbear tankie.
