Roosevelt: The New Deal-The Fireside Chats (clip)

[FreakAlert2008]

After Wilson, FDR completely sold out the USA, to whoever controls the world banking super-structure

A great president, no tyrant. Only bitter conservatives say that.

If anything, he avoided a tyranny.

It's pathetic how many historians are so economically (and historically) ignorant. The power grabs made by this tyrant paved the path to the demise the US is now witnessing. And idiotic sycophants produce these propaganda films to indoctrinate the people--mostly youth watching it in school. Pathetic. If there is any merit to this concept of heaven and hell, Roosevelt is sure to be roasting like the sick pig that he is. Rest in despair you piece of shit

@Mises85 Interesting point. What do you make of the G.I. bill however? I think having a middle class is very important and we're seeing the doors finally close on it after using it's services for a while.

@Mises85 I am only going to say a few words. Adolf Hitler. Josef Stalin. Yamamoto and Hirohito. All of the above were active in the 1930s and did things beyond Roosevelt's wildest dreams: because of these men, there are millions of people who never lived to be old and have descendants.

If you want to rag on FDR, go ahead, be my guest. But remember, your alternative in 1933 were these men...and I might add, Churchill didn't get elected til 1940.
