Lord help us. That ass FDR put the USA through 10 years of depression. And the Democrats still think he’s a great President.

Yes you are correct. But it isn't surprising that so many people believe FDR was a great man and his policies helped the country. We have documentary after documentary on PBS and the History Channel saying in essence that FDR saved the country in the 1930's. It's taught in high schools and colleges around the country. I even believed it until I started seriously studying economics and started read Friedman and Hayek. So it's awfully hard to fight the Roosevelt bandwagon. You have to reach a higher understanding of economics to understand that what FDR did really didn't improve things at all and almost certainly made the Depression longer than it would otherwise have been.
