Neglect of History

Republican insistence on deregulation, keep government out of business, less government is best government

and Pubs were right. This is why our best newspapers and economists on both sides agree it was liberal government that caused the current recession. Who can say with a straight face this is not true?

"First consider the once controversial view that the crisis was largely caused by the Fed's holding interest rates too low for too long after the 2001 recession. This view is now so widely held that the editorial pages of both the NY Times and the Wall Street Journal agree on its validity!"...John B. Taylor( arch conservative, author of the Taylor Rule)


" The Federal reserve having done so much to create the problems in which the economy is now mired, having mistakenly thought that even after the housing bubble burst the problems were contained, and having underestimated the severity of the crisis, now wants to make a contribution to preventing the economy from sinking into a Japanese Style malaise....... - "Joseph Stiglitz"
 
By the time FDR got in, there was no economy left to stimulate. All they could do was make life less miserable. Still, austerity in 1937, at Pub request, made for a new slide. See what the UK is doing now.

Change the channel, dupe.

I supppose you thought that means something??? Did FDR resign then??? See why we say liberals are slow??

too completely stupid and liberal. What they could do was encourage capitalism or socialism. Being stupid they encouraged socialism

Still, austerity in 1937, at Pub request, made for a new slide. See what the UK is doing now.

so when economy is in depression you kill it dead with new taxes for new welfare spending programs? That kills an economy not revives it. You want to cut taxes so the private sector has more opportunity to create real growth in the economy.

You haven't had econ 101 so don't even try to address this, liberal.

substance free; typical of liberalism. Have you had Econ 101. Do you think you're fooling anyone????
 
The Democrats neglect of history has gone unnoticed for numerous years and it amazes me.

FDR: The Liberal party made out the New Deal to be the greatest thing ever, but they actually convinced the public that it ended the Great Depression.

Bailouts: The Liberal party think that somehow, someway, that we should be bailing out failing companies? It's a shame to see a party be this neglectful.

Income Inequality: Probably the most aggravating of all, but the greatest persuasive case the Democrats have made. They have convinced the public that the rich (And yes, they convinced the public that the rich/greedy people are Republicans) and the "greedy" people are what created this gap, but, once again, they neglect history. What they don't tell the public is that the Government and the Democrats have created this gap.

Well-Intention Programs: Yes, the Democrats are at it again! They've convinced the public that they, the Democratic party, have the best solutions to problems through Government intervention.

Spending: Although, the Republicans have spent, they have not spent anywhere near where the Democrats have. Yes, they've convinced the public that if we spend more than we take in, everything will be great!

Taxing: Finally, the Democrats have convinced the public that one man, has a right to another man's money. Hmmmmmmmm, unconstitutional? You tell me.

Well stated! The Democrats DON'T CARE about history. In fact, one of the core beliefs of the Democrat Party is that "history" is open to interpretation and change and pliability, just like the U.S. Constitution.

yes they don't care about the instant liberal rags to conservative riches history of China. Are Russian, India, and Cuba going back to socialism based on their look at obvious history. Our Democrats may be the dumbest people in the world.
 
Neglecting History.

WWII ended the Depression. Republican whining and obstructionism made it linger however. Reminds me of something......

Who was it that bailed out the banks again?

Trickle down therory has yet to trickle down.

Both parties are big government tax and spend.

Who is that one man you say? The progressive income tax scale is not unconstitutional.


The core philosophy of the Republican Party, I should say, is not for big government, more taxing, etc. Now, the Republicans did not make the Depression linger, that's a neglect of history. Once again, the bailout of the banks was not a core belief of the Republican Party.

I should have reworded my point and said that the CORE PHILOSOPHY of the REPUBLICAN PARTY is the right one. Of course, you'll get big government Republicans, but nowhere near the Liberal big government theorists. And, yes, the income tax is unconstitutional.



Not only did their action in the 1930's make the depression linger but their CORE PHILOSOPHY can be cited as one of the major causes.

The worsening of the economy in the years before the stock market crash is troubling for conservative defenders of the Roaring Twenties. The economic policies were strictly Republican; there was no Big Government to blame for the onset of the Depression. Money was based on the gold standard, yet another pet conservative ideology. The tax burden was the lightest since World War I to this day. Yet even before October 29, 1929, it was clear that the economy was in trouble and that things were only going to get worse.

Causes of the Great Depression

16th Amendment to the Constitution. The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
 
All Pubs are good for is a boom for insiders, and a bust for everyone else...




Unemployment rates:

Democrats sieze control of Congress: 4.7%

Obama takes the White House: 7.5%

Republicans take back the House: 9.7%

Today: 8.3%

You were saying?
 
Everything you said was wrong or grossly distorted, what do you call it? Time to prove your assertions.

It's funny when people attack with no argument. You want to try and refute anything I said? I mean, after all, that's why I posted it... To hear counterarguments.

You posted that crap to get agreement and confirmation, don't worry, there will be someone along shortly just as partisan and uninformed to give you some.

Why would I waste my time making a thread if everyone's going to just agree with me? The reason there's a message board is to discuss our ideas and debate.

The left does not neglect history.

It's very important to rewrite it to cover up their failings for the glorious future of the party and take great pains to hide the evil they do.

That has got to be one of the most idiotic quotes I have ever viewed on here. Do you think the British might have have a different interpretation on the American Revolution than the Americans. The Vietnamese might have a different interpretation than the US in regards to the Vietnam War. The Plantagenet Dynasty ancestors might have a very different interpretation on the British Monarchy than the Tudors. Convenience and subjectivity have been the unbreakable pillars holding history and political discourse. Everything is relative and open to interpretation.
 
:clap2: Very well said, and I totally agree. It infuriates me to no end to hear the crap the Democratic party comes up with. I hope and pray the American people will wake up before it's too late ~ before election day in November would be good. :doubt:
