This poster hits the nail on the proverbial head. Troubled as they were in many respects, the 1960s were the heyday of the prosperous middle class, made possible largely by the tax structure of the time. If you were rich, you either invested in something worthwhile or you lost it to Uncle Sam. I think there is a connection between that and daring feats of innovation and progress. We saw this not just in technology but in music and the arts.

Naturally, the Trumpites and Reagan dupes want to disagree.
