is how well they forget history. and make up their Own reality.
Obama is more Reagan than Republican memories of Reagan… LOL
Do whatever you can to interfere with that law until we can repeal it, just like a majority of Americans want you to do.

She should work on repealing the New Deal first. Then the foundation of Obamacare’s socialist agenda will crumble away (insert snickering, and muffled hysterical laughter).
Great point. Many of FDR’s programs are the root of the trouble we find ourselves in. Had WWII not come along, who knows how long the Great Depression might have lasted.
IIRC…
When FDR took office, unemployment was 25%.
When WWII started it was down to half that.
Since we’re talking uncontrolled experiments here (no case without WWII), I can just as easily state that the depression would have ended even sooner without WWII.
Similarly, we’ll never know what would have happened it Hoover’s policies had been continued. But without the WPA, you can bet there would have been a lot of pain in the short run.

Cool stuff. It all makes sense, but I’d like to see the other side of the story, too. Maybe I’ll get a chance to try to chase that down at lunch…
Just a different way to look at it. Ultimately it’s a Keynesian view versus a free-market view.
Smarter people than us (well, me, anyway) disagree more heartily on it than we do.
I thought it was more a matter of monetary policy (interest rates and tax rates).
And the authors do go on to say that the banking crisis resulted from “poorly designed” regulations, not regulations per se. They also credit lax monopoly law enforcement as contributing to the 1937-38 “recession within a depression”, so it ‘s not as cut-and-dried as saying it’s Keynesian vs free markets.
Anyway, the point is that some New Deal policies were failures that did more harm than good. Hopefully, we can learn from the past.
