Andrew Mellon was from the family that founded and ran what is now Mellon Bank. In addition to his being the Secretary of Treasury for a long time (appointed by Harding, stayed on through the Coolidge administration and then Hoover) and being what today would be called a strong supply sider, he was a big name in philanthropy.
No wonder I don’t know about him. The commies have expunged him from the record.
Thanks for the education! He’s a very strong, and successful supply sider. If only Hoover had taken his advice.
