Can any tell me, or point me to a site, or whatever about how reaganomics divided people up into various tax brackets. Specifically, who was considered wealthy?
The discussion centers on the impact of Reaganomics on tax brackets, specifically identifying who was classified as wealthy during this period. The Economic Recovery Tax Act (ERTA) of 1981 significantly altered the personal tax code by reducing the top tax rate from 70% to 50%, along with an approximate 23% reduction in all other rates over three years. This reform marked the most substantial changes to the tax system since World War II, reshaping the financial landscape for high-income earners.
