In any case, Social Security is probably one of FDR's greatest contributions to America. Of course, it was fought tooth and nail by Republicans, it was socialism, communism and made Americans dependent on government and all the anti Obama-care fear words being used today. As America slid into socialism and communism with Social Security, Medicare was added as was some hospitalization and disability insurance.
As the Tea-Party sign said, "Keep government out of my medicare."
If "Social Security is probably one of FDR's greatest contributions to America," why didn't FDR author an amendment to allow it?
Not needed, a stitch in time and all that.
