As usual, the Republicans are completely unaware of the old saying by George Santayana, “That those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it.”

The Republicans are talking about taxing the rich at 25% instead of the current 35% which is half of what it was during the Kennedy/Johnson years.

Guess what? That last time the tax on the rich was 25%, it was in 1928, a year before the great depression. But whoever said the Republicans knew what they were doing. They’ve managed to cut funding to schools over the years and managed to create little by little an uneducated electorate who seems to be as ignorant as George W Bush of history and the lessons of history. Otherwise, why would the American people elect Republicans to straighten out the financial mess the Republicans created.
