We alway's seem to confuse Human Nature with Politics. WWII ended the depression, not Socialism. What Roosevelt did was shore up the Union's and Government Workers, and Eliminate competition encouraging monopolies, at the expense of Everyone that was not connected.
Meh....hard to really separate WWII from being a huge, Socialist 5 Year Plan.
But whatever ended the Great Depression, it was preceded by the explosive growth of government, which has contraviened individual acheivement ever since.
And created the middle class in the USA
One of the most prosperous timesin this country, when the middle class was booming. THe graph that shows money discrepencies between the top 10% and the rest shows prior to the great depression, the top 10% had so much more than the rest, which during the exploding middle class was much narrower. And now, the top 10% is even higher than it was pre-depression, and look where our economy is. Thriving middle class keeps us strong, keeps economy chugging. Not filth rich fat cats hording more and more money. Don't get why people defend billionaires
