Ladies And Gentlemen . . . The President of the United States April 30, 2021April 29, 2021 The speech. The transcript. The Pie Charts. Note that the $4 trillion the President spoke of Wednesday is spread out over eight and ten years, for more like $400 billion a year. Huge — but less than 2% of our GDP. Is that too much to revitalize our infrastructure? To reverse the 40-year trend toward ever-increasing inequality? The three richest Americans have a combined net worth greater than the bottom 160 million, according to Tax The Rich. That’s not a criticism of those three largely-great men; but it does suggest some recalibration may be in order. Have a great weekend!
