President Dwight Eisenhower embraced anti-trust and anti-corruption laws and the egalitarian American values they reflected. He kept the top income tax rate at 91% for morbidly rich individuals and around 50% for the most profitable corporations, expanded GI Bill benefits, supported free college, maintained and strengthened regulation of banks, built the interstate highway system, encouraged unionization, and funded brand new hospitals, schools, and airports from one end of the nation to the other.
