Right, because the US immediately post-WW2 was an incredibly stagnant society with no visible benefits to the middle class.

What the fuck are you on about

Not OP, but we actually had a tax rate that high back then, and the US experienced unprecedented economic growth and technological innovation, along with an insanely strong middle class.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
