If you look this up, you’ll see that it’s correct. Eisenhower was a fierce advocate of the following:
- Infrastructure, e.g., the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, creating the 41,000-mile Interstate Highway System to improve national defense and commerce
- Social Programs, Social Security, minimum wage, the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
- Fiscal Policy, lower taxes, a balanced budget, and reduced government regulation, aiming to limit federal intervention in local affairs
- Foreign Policy, nuclear deterrence and relying on the CIA for covert operations
- Civil Rights, desegregation of the military and the armed forces, support for the Brown v. Board of Education decision
Where the Republican Party Has Gone Since Eisenhower in the 1950s
Looks like communism! is the new mantra of the GOP. It’s coming from the least intelligent of their leaders to the least intelligent of their followers.
Could work!
What Obama says at left is a reminder that life in on Earth is tough enough without the planet’s most nation being led by a criminal sociopath.
As previously mentioned, it’s good to see the rising popularity of astrophysicist Dr. Brian Cox.
In this video, he explains that life on Earth is about 4 billion years old, but for the first 3 billion, there was nothing more complicated than single celled organisms. He suggests that this may be the reason that civilizations are rare in the universe, i.e., that they’re only around for the blink of an eye in terms of geologic time.
To me, it also makes one wonder why it took God 3 billion years to create the first multicelled form of life.
