The 80-year recipe stoking America’s Prosperity:

1) Free-market capital investments in brilliant ideas…
2) enabled by Engineering Innovations…
3) based on Science Research in Universities…
4) funded by Grants from the US Government.

It’s time more people understood this.

Fun fact. The number of non-military federal employees between the 1950’s and today has been relatively stable at 2-3 million. 3 million in the 80’s, 2.8 million in the 90’s, and 3 million as of November 2024, accounting for only 1.87% of the civilian workforce.

RIP to a true public servant.

“America has never been united by blood or birth or soil. We are bound together by the ideals that move us beyond our backgrounds, lift us above our interests, and teach us what it means to be citizens.” Jimmy Carter

Hey, grown-ups! Don't tell kids that reading is a worthwhile and pleasurable activity - show them! Let them catch you reading a book and sighing, or laughing, or emitting little squeaks of fear, or going back and rereading a bit out loud to yourself. Be a model reader!
