Since tax rates are mostly the same through 2007, doesn't the chart actually show that the top 1% have just gotten wealthier? We had a Republican President, and from 1995 to 2007 mostly, a Republican controlled congress.

What happened? Did the party just fuck it up for you guys and not fix the tax problem after all that time?
