this is typical b.s., it was all and still it for democrats to buy votes by giving folks free shit from my money.
Amity Shlaes book “The Forgotten Man” written in 2007 was outstanding. She made a very compelling case about how terrible the New Deal was and how it severely prolonged the depression and increased the depths of the depression.
Based on her reputation from that book, I have every confidence she will bring the same critical, conservative eye to this new book of hers.
Why would you summarize this as “typical BS” so quickly without having read the article or the book (and probably knowing nothing about the author)?
That idea was lbj’s creation of the democratic party plantation!!!
