There's nothing bougie about this poor boy's perspective. It is fiscally conservative and socially progressive for Americans to invest in Americans, neighbors to invest in neighbors. In a 1961 proposal to Congress, JFK wrote, "Our progress as a nation can be no swifter than our progress in education. Our requirements for world leadership, our hopes for economic growth and the demands citizenship itself in an era such as this all require the maximum development of every young American's capacity. The human mind is our fundamental resource." He backed it up with funds guaranteeing college access to all kids, regardless of their "financial means." Two years later, Jack Kennedy was shot dead in Dallas. His brother Bobby blamed the CIA for the killing, before himself being slain in plain sight. After JFK's murder, the war pigs in Congress and the Pentagon went full bore on the proxy war in Vietnam that both Kennedys had vowed to end.
