... that FDR's New Deal solved the Great Depression? Actually, it didn't. It's uncertainty, big spending, and regulation that prolonged the Depression. FDR's Treasury Secretary, Henry Morgenthau, admitted: "We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work." Did you know that Herbert Hoover made the Depression worse because as president...he did nothing? The Washington Post believes that. In 2008, the paper claimed GW Bush was "today's Herbert Hoover" because of his "dogged resistance to assisting anybody." Actually, Hoover increased spending by 53.5% during his presidency. He signed bad big- government bills like the Davis-Bacon Act and the Smoot-Hawley Tariff. He started huge public works projects like the Hoover Dam. Hoover was a big spender -- like Obama. It isn't just the debt it is the whole fraud way it is being handled since 2007 with the democrat congress and Bernanke fraud. Low interest rates has a lot to do with this. Presidents before 2007 borrowed real money for the most part. treasuries issued, people bought them as you would get a return just above inflation. Yet interest rates were slammed to zero because Bernanke creates trillions of fraud no-value money....faster than Americans consume toilet paper. So the money the treasure gets isn't even real money. Hover and others borrowed real money, even for WW II they used war bonds...but real money. So with low rates, business can earn less and pay less taxes. People buy less for the inflation eats up the income. Less products, less jobs, even less taxes. Businesses need to stay a little profitable so they lay off even more and the vicious cycle continues as more wealth is consumed by government than is produced by the economy. Materially not much has changed with he rate of taxation since 2006. Bit today in real dollars the revenue from income is 2/3rd of what it was in 2006. Yep, a 1/3rd decrease in earnings and tax generating taxable wealth. Heck, government doesn't even get to tax interest and dividends as much. Add in Obama on a spending binge, well, fast road to Bankrupt USA. What a better way to destroy the USA.... Some just needs to say no more debt fraud. Obama, Bernake, democrats are either the dumbest ****s on earth not to see this, or they need to be hung as traitors to America. -- Obama, enslaving Americans with debt-tax slavery for a spending binge. Doesn't even borrow real money, Bernanke just creates it like a counterfeiter. . |
