The original, most socialistic, New Deal was thankfully overturned by the Supreme Court. Then in 1937 FDR decided to pack the Supreme Court. The Congress rebelled.<br /><br />FDR in WWII locked up Japanese in internment camps. Overall, FDR was the most anti-freedom President in US history.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38479691.post-83587361933710671872009-04-19T10:56:00.000-05:002009-04-19T10:56:00.000-05:00The 1934 drawing is a perfect illustration for tod...The 1934 drawing is a perfect illustration for todays concerned citizens. There were concerns even during the Great Depression that the New Deal was socialism. But that worked out pretty well. In more recent history, Reagan signed a $750 billion stimilus that turned the economy around quickly and made fortunes for some overnight. During the economic boom of the 90's we had a surplus which was under a Democratic leadership which made it possible for the tax cuts under Bush's administration. We have history on our side.bluestar1https://www.blogger.com/profile/13036402967322268523noreply@blogger.com
