We've Been Brainwashed Into Thinking The AIG Bonus Tax Is Revolutionary
The 90 percent tax rate is not that different from top marginal tax rates that have been in place in the pass. The only thing that has changed is that we have been brainwashed into thinking that such taxes are socialistic.

A 90 percent tax rate on highly paid companies executives whose companies are receiving bailout money? *yawn* Been there done that, but the media is not going to tell you this.
