It only took Congress two years to begin finagling the original IRS rates.

Early IRS rates:

Year	$10,001	$20,001	$60,001	$100,001	$250,001	$500,001	$1,000,000
1913	1%	2%	3%	5%	6%	7%	7%
1914	1%	2%	3%	5%	6%	7%	7%
1916	2%	3%	5%	7%	10%	12%	13%
1918	16%	21%	41%	64%	72%	76%	77%
1920	12%	17%	37%	60%	68%	72%	73%

1918! Exactly why my grandfather Despised Woodrow Wilson! Progressivism was B/S. He was a then CEO at a huge company that brought much prosperity to the US. I never met him, he died before I was born but his conservatism was passed on to my Mom and thus to me!

God Bless you Abba!
