Original Note:
This in not entirely true. We are experiencing an “across-the-board” tax increase of 15% due to what is being termed The Inflation Tax. Inflation is running at 7% so $10,000 in 2020 in a savings account (IRA, 401k, etc.), will buy only about $8,700 worth of stuff today. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamdunkelberg/2023/01/05/the-inflation-tax/?sh=1d6656162f03
