If you're going to with history, then our income shouldn't be taxed at all, and if it is, it should only be temporary.
Then some of the first personal income taxes, didn't tax the poor, at all, not even a tiny bit. So when we had no income tax, it was only the rich paying, on the personal business they did, as that's who owned property and traded slaves.
Yes and yes... not sure how that's an error.
P.S. By 1917 the top tax rate was almost 70%.....
