Sorry for contributing so little but I want to know from people who either grew up during the post-war economic boom (1945-1973) or know about the era in US history. Please?

They were a wonderful time because we were deadlocked in a cold war with the Soviets, scared out of our wits by Sputnik, spending our free time digging fallout shelters in our backyards, dying by the thousands in Korea, and running up a national debt.
Were they? But the thing is high taxes arn't necessarily a bad thing
Most of the world, anyhow. They, er, were not the only country to get a time of plenty, with improving standards of living, optimism and indeed some cultural flowering.A time of plenty, improving standards of living, postwar optimism and cultural flowering in the USA, enviously watched by the rest of the world living in bombed-out austerity.
Of course, things weren't perfect, for alot of people, namely African-Americans.
Never said they were. I merely asked if taxes were higher then than now - I think corporate taxes were pretty high
