Title: Youngstown's Evil Rich
Post by: Towntalk on August 14, 2013, 07:39:16 AM
 We often find folks that gripe about the rich, "they don't pay their fair share" ... well consider this page 1 article for September 1, 1925.

Note:

What would those figures be in terms of today's dollar?

Oh my, my, my how much did John Todd make in 1924 that he paid $74,600 in taxes?   I WISH I had that much coming IN today - let alone in 1924 :o   That is probably half of what my block is worth  :laugh: ;D ;)

Unfortunately no iwasthere. I tried using the method that I use to get pictures , but it will not work with texts and google only allows you to save links. I guess they do it that way because of copyright issues with the newspapers. I know that print screen is no good with articles.
