This makes sense now! When I was little I won a contest through Montgomery Ward. It was why my mom is the best. I put she makes the best mac n cheese and won a giant stuffed Rudolph. I still have it.

My dad was in Sales at Montgomery Ward in Chicago in the 60s. Mr. May walked around the offices during Christmas and shook hands with all the employees. Dad was one of them!

91% individual and 72% corporate income tax rates are insane to me. Does anyone know the current top rates to compare to the 50s?
