Bankruptcy and the Federal Reserve
and the codification of common law into the Uniform Commercial Code.
FDR was more of an administer of a bankrupt nation than a president. He didn't call the shots.

Well, he jumped and danced to get it further enacted, packing the Supreme Court, etc.
BTW the quote from Jefferson on the site you referenced is profound. IT should be printed on our currency!
My father, in his 80s, fumes to this day about the Federal Reserve and international bankers. So some citizens were aware and horrified by what was happening. I think most people do NOT know that the Fed is a private corporation, reaping profit from the issuance of currency and CREDIT.
What to do? Do you think all this can be overturned by appealing to Congress? Not likely; and you will be branded a conspiracy-nut to boot . . .
My "program of action" is a limited one. Try as best I can to buy from local, family-owned businesses and family farms. I buy products from the Amish, God Bless them, because they are striving mightily to earn a living and live in a real community. And are PRESERVING, for ALL of us, beautiful countryside and lovely small towns.
I do have one hope: that the Internet will make it possible for more people to live in rural areas and small-towns, and still make a living. I have found some treasures from family-operated businesses that way. PROBLEM: why would someone move from the city to a dying small town, which no longer has any operating businesses except an undertaker -- who will also go out of business when the last hangers-on die off?
There is the appeal of "getting away" from the rat race. But people do need a social life and places to shop and go for culture and entertainment . . .
What think ye?
