Census money income statistics

This link from http://www.census.gov/compendia/statab/cats/income_expenditures_poverty_wealth.html is a much better presenter of income sensus. Even allows to copy and past:

YEAR$15K25K$35K$50K$75K over
196710.7% 11.3% 14.0% 22.1% 25.6% 16.3%
19709.2 10.6 12.0 20.8 26.2 21.1
1980 8.8 10.5 11.4 17.1 24.8 27.4
1990 8.6 9.4 10.2 15.6 22.4 33.8
2008 8.1 9.0 9.7 13.6 19.4 40.3

I was going to use this table as evidence that lower tax rates prompt more middle people to higher brackets, but because I don't have the data in 50s, it is not conclusive.
