No big surprises here for me. As for Eisenhower though, he spent the Treasury on things of lasting value - like an entire interstate highway system. For those of you not as old as I am (75), you have no idea how many lives that saved! Yes lives saved. Every time our family went on a road trip, we’d come across at least on terrible car accident. My mother would always ask the police as we finally drove by - How many? Meaning “deaths”. Because there always were. That changed significantly after interstates opened.
