75% tax coming to a country near you

FDR wanted to tax the rich at 100% back in the good old days. That didn't fly with congress becuase they figured the 80%+ rate they had was enough.

And I'm suprised France even functions. Their programs are such BS that I don't see why any company would stay there and it's not like France has any major natural resource to exploit to sustain themselves like a middle eastern country could.
