I recently heard a liberal commentator, lament the fact that while Kennedy could announce a project, such as going to the moon and actually follow it up and have it accomplished, Trump announces projects but with no follow up at all. I, of course, consider that a cheap shot. After all not only is it a lot easier to announce something than to actually do it but when Kennedy announced we were going to the moon, our highest marginal tax rate was 91% and we actually had the money to go the moon. Now, since only our corporations have the money, thanks to much lower marginal rates, we have to wait for shareholders, of our corporation, to decide whether they can spare the money from their dividends, to even go back to the moon.
Until that time, Trump is trying to be nice to us so as not to feel too bad about those trillion dollar tax cuts for the billionaires of the country.
