One for you, 19 for me

A friendly reminder about the lengths to which the state will go: The Beatles song "Taxman" is not fiction. The British government taxed very high income-makers like John, Paul, George and Ringo at a rate of 95 percent. And in the USSA, the top rate in those "progressive" times was 70 percent.

Fortunately the beneficent government redistributed the income in such an equitable way that poverty was eliminated in both countries. Oh, you missed that? Odd; so did the poor.
