Historical, Not Hysterical. Campos is far too shrewd to dream that he can turn the economy around overnight. "Our actions are based on historical-not hysterical-concepts," he says. Inflation is obviously the primary target, and as a first step, Campos hopes to slow the spiral to 70% this year.

All stages worked perfectly, the guidance system performed accurately, and the instrumented re-entry vehicle made a very near miss on a target some 4,000 miles downrange." Minuteman, in Schriever's view, has tipped the missile scales heavily in favor...
