FDR was a Failure

FDR, a hero to all of the Liberals, has become one of the most overrated presidents that we've had. The 'New Deal' that he implemented was a disaster to businesses around the country. The New Deal brought astonishingly high taxation and regulations on the American people. Many democrats will say how successful the New Deal was for America, on the contrary though, it extended the recession by up to 7 years. Yikes!

Interesting fact, FDR cut the military budget around 51% while Germany and Japan were building their military's up and becoming aggressors. This is a typical response by Liberals though, while the world is heading toward chaos, they decide to chop our military up.

Does all of this sound familiar? It all should, Obama is copying what FDR did and is being proclaimed as the next FDR for this country. Last year, Obama chopped our military up and passed a lot of 'New Deal' like packages full of pork. Everyone is wondering, why doesn't this recession end? Well, it doesn't end because it's not possible to artificially elevate the economy and then award people for not working! If we eliminated the safety nets, thus making people work for lower paying jobs, that would cause the manufacturing businesses to flourish! If we lowered taxes on companies and allowed Supply Sided Economics to take place, we'd see our economy also flourish! Once the artificial bubble pops, I feel sorry for all of the people on a handout because they'll see a tremendous drop in their quality of life! Look at Greece, they tried what we're doing and now their country is near bankruptcy(the people also have a drop in their quality of life).

FDR's policies can only be maintained during wartime, it's not possibly to sustain his kind of policies without a war going on. If you want policies that can be sustained without being in war, take a look at the policies that were implemented by Reagan, they had long reaching effects a decade after his presidency. Hell, while he was president more than 20 million jobs were created.

History is scattered with examples showing that communism and socialism never work in the long run. Not only do they not work but they also allow the government to control you. Mao and Stalin starved all of their enemies because the government had control of the food.
