Another prerequisite for the good ol' days: way higher corporate tax rates. 52% during the 50s. I find it funny Republicans always leave that one out.

That is the marginal tax rate not the effective rate, it was really about 30% - 40% depending on how you were set up. Now its about 20% - 25% effective rate.
