Federal Income and Payroll Tax Changes，1979-1999 There have been four major legislative changes in the federal personal income tax code in the last two decades.

ERTA significantly reduced personal income taxes across-the-board. It incorporated a three-year period of tax reduction，with marginal rates on all but the highest income taxpayers declining substantially during the 1981-1984 period. The top marginal tax rate on earned income was 50 percent before as well as after ERTA, but the legislation reduced the top marginal rate on unearned income from 70 percent to 50 percent beginning in 1981. This reform also reduced the top statutory marginal tax rate on long-term capital gains from 28 percent to 20 percent. We consider tax burdens in 1984 in our analysis below, because by 1984 the ERTA reforms were fully effective. TRA86 continued the reduction in top marginal tax rates tha
