The Republican (fascist/socialist) 17th counterfeit CONgress (elected in accordance with the fraudulent 17th amendment)–over the veto of Democratic (socialist/fascist) President Truman–passes the Revenue Act of 1948:
- Increasing the number of personal “income” tax brackets from 23 to 24;
- Increasing the highest personal rate on amounts earned over 200,000 “dollars” from 86.45%% to 91%;
- Reducing the unlawful, individual, Federal income tax rates 5 to 13 percent;
- Increasing the personal exemption amount from 500 to 600 “dollars”;
- Permitting married couples to split their incomes for tax purposes;
- Maintaining the lowest personal rate on the first 2,000 “dollars” earned at 20%; and
- Reducing the highest corporate rate from 40% to 38%.
NOTE: This is the further realization of plank number two of the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx.
