Idiot.Better then what it was, and given the sheer scale of the depression, he was amazing. Unemployment continually went down, and saying the WPA and other programs failed is fucking hilarious.. EMPLOYERS WERENT FUCKING HIRING. Brain dead con bs.LOL! Yes, Roosevelt helped people into 20% unemployment for nearly a decade. Unemployment didnt fall until we started drafting people into the military in the 1940s.Are you truly this stupid? FDR did not prolong the depression, he helped working people get through it and set a precedent.Straw man.Yes, fundamentally the economic situation in 1930 was far worse than the situation in 1920. The situation in 1920 allowed for the market to correct itself. The situation in 1930, when economic demand crashed worldwide in a prolonged manner, did not.Beautiful! The quick recovery in 1920 was just a freak of nature.
The extended downturn of the Great Depression was caused by government.
oops.
You won't find any serious support for the idea that FDR caused the depression whereas the Market God would have solved things itself, except from true believers in your market worship religion.
No one claims FDR caused teh Depression. But he did prolong the Depression. Every country in Europe was in recovery by the 1930s. The US was the exception.
Hoover was a Progressive and his policies made the recession worse. Smoot-Hawley was one of the many drivers of the crash. FDR doubled down on stupid. Obama is tripling down on it.

I suppose you think people would be better off without any of FDRS employment programs, although I'm sure you'll ignore the fact unemployment went down when he was in office, just not at a super fast pace.
Roosevelt stuck people in make work programs that did nothing to help the economy bt did make it harder for employers to get good employees.
Hey, genius, it did go down, care to mention the sheer scale of the depression? Nonintervention was failing, FDR took action, unemployment constantly decreased. Yes, a drastic drop in unemployment during one of the worst depressions of all time is something to celebrate. Of course, con loons ignore the conditions that existed at the time.Idiot.Better then what it was, and given the sheer scale of the depression, he was amazing.

1932: 23.6%
1934: 21.7%
1936: 16.9%
1938: 19%
Yes tell me how it was going down. 17% unemployment after 5 years of FDR. That is a failure only a lib could love. And of course we get the usual excuse for every failed government program: We didnt spend enough.
I can't tell if this is a parody or not. Conservatives don't worship capitalism, we utilize it. Some better than others. Nobody but leftists promise a Utopia. You need to pull your own weight, not drag others down to your level. Those that left you behind are enjoying the fruits of their labor, although many liberals occupy a pay slot in a government agency. They do even better but they don't want you to nab their job so they tell you the capitalist has what's yours.It is their true God. It can do no wrong. It solves all problems. The ultra rich are the Market God's chosen ones, and the conservatives believe that if they worship the market and enslave themselves to it, they too will become chosen ones.
Market worship is a religion that has de facto supplanted Christianity, although they use Christianity to hate on gays and science. The Bible and Christianity at times provide useful justification for Conservatives in their development of a fascist state cloaked in Christian Theocracy, but ultimately bound to the One True God ... The Market. You see, in the Conservative Utopia which they strive for, the conservatives use Christianity to control the peoples' minds, and once the minds are under control the Christian God becomes one in the same as the Market God. And then the Market God will be unchained. 90% will become slaves who live in huts, and their Corporate Masters will raise armies to control their domains. You will be the slave of your corporate owner, working 7 days a week, and if you disobey the punishment will be death.
That is the America that the False Conservative Utopia promised by their Idol the Market God will actually become, not a thing like the utopia that was promised. You will be a slave, and your life expectancy will become 45 because you will be worked to the bone and Healthcare will become a "priviledge" not a right, and they aren't even hiding that they believe that.
Only Progressivism can save you from this fate. Repent and believe.

Ignoramus! There was no "non intervention." Hoover was intervening from the beginning. Unemployment was 19% a full 8 years into the Depression. That isnt a drop. That's a drop in the bucket.Hey, genius, it did go down, care to mention the sheer scale of the depression? Nonintervention was failing, FDR took action, unemployment constantly decreased.

I see you've found the smiley faces & lol comments. Now you just need to focus on a brain that isn't broken.YAWN
why does the Left have to go back seventy years for an example of left-wing ideology that works
Speaking of straw-men …look at this.

Revisionist history. The depression would have continued regardless, FDR helped the working class through it and set a framework for the social safety net we have now.Which explains the wonderful job the "markets" did for the poor before FDR stepped in.Geezus, they got nuttier and more stupid as time goes on. This moron might beat Billy Triple Fail in the stupid department.
No, dope. We dont worship the market. We recognize the market does a superior job of allocating resources than government control does.
Go take an Econ course and come back.
FDR prolonged a depression and turned it into the Great Depression. The Depression of 1920 also happened and the government did nothing to "fix" it, the Market was allowed to correct itself….it lasted about 1 year. FDR stepped in in the 30s to get us out of the depression……and it lasted till the outbreak of WW2. And unemployment never fell below 14%…….so FDR did nothing for the poor but keep them poor…….
That's totally false. The depression that started in 1929 was far more severe than previous depressions/panics. It is your religion that leads you to believe that the Market God would have solved things itself.
FDR saved this nation. Progressivism saved this nation. Without them, the Great Depression would have destroyed our country as we know it. And they created programs that have improved our quality of life to this day.
No….FDR pushed us into a deeper, more desperate economic situation and we didn't recover until WW2, nothing he did helped, it just made it worse. AGain, we had a depression in 1920, the government did nothing…..and we were out in a year.

It's all the have, look at the clowns they have running for President now.SAD indeed what the party of Eisenhower has become.

and what about the clowns for the Democrat party? Not one of them has done anything in their Career as a politician that stands out as memorable. the only thing memorable about them is look at how many years they've been sucking a living off us taxpayers while sitting on their butts worrying about a football teams name
"Conservatives Worship the Market"
File this under 'Stupid Things People Say When They Try To Speak For Someone Else'....
Anyone can play this 'game' - Give it a try:
'All Liberals are sexually repressed Islamic Extremist Sympathizing Socialists'
'All Libertarians Secretly Believe Ben Franklin Wore a Corset, Push-Up Bra, and High Heels'
....what you got?
Got a lot of time sitting on his ass. I guess that beats walking the streets of Chicago stirring up shit.It's all the have, look at the clowns they have running for President now.SAD indeed what the party of Eisenhower has become.

James Webb, Jr has plenty of qualifications if you ask me. He served as a United States Senator from Virginia, Secretary of the Navy, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs, Counsel for the United States House Committee on Veterans' Affairs, and Marine Corps officer.What do republicans have against them stats?

How would you "rebut the post on the merits!!"if the post was an argumentum ad hominem attack?
