If the 1950s Were the "Golden Years"

The `50s seem to be regarded as a golden time, according to conservatives. If that has any element of truth to it, then why don't we bring back 1950s-era taxation (adjusted for inflation)?

Robert Reich made a pretty decent argument why that would be a good idea. The Confederate party has made damn good progress at destroying the middle class in this country. They are making that progress with the useful dupes who buy into the "abortion, gays, niggers, spics, guns and G-d" propaganda while ignoring what the Confederate party and the banksters have been doing for the last 30 years to wipe out the economic middle (and to ship their jobs overseas).

Yes we can start of the decade with Korean war.. right we have Afganistan and Iraq..

Then we can do the great commie witch hunt.. right we have teabaggers.

Revisit the ICBM race and the cold war.
That was fun.

Right we didn't do abortions, we did persecute anyone pregnant out of wedlock.

We had TV, going bad to black and white with fuzzy pictures is good.

I'm kinda hard pressed to find the '50s better than now.

Missed one, all the prewar and post war gains made for solid economic growth. Yabut all that stuff had to be started 10+ years before. we haven't done that being as it's all undone 10 years before.

Sound like a lot of wishin and very little doin.
