One of the Lies Behind fdr's Concentration Camps

[regent]

As I have pointed out- World War 2 were FDR's policies on steroids- the very massive government spending and government employment programs that Conservatives claim didn't work did in fact work in World War 2.

By the end of World War 2 the middle class was wealthier than it had been in any time in American history- and the GI Bill primed the pump for those returning GI to be able to go to school, buy homes and start business's.
.

Yes, this has been pointed out numerous times to the FDR haters, but they aren't even aware of their cognitive dissonance in essentially admitting FDR wasn't spending nearly enough before the war spending kicked in, and not what they think they're saying. lol

They are also saying all kinds of rationing, limiting corporate profits to 5% or less, and other wartime measures worked, everything but laissez faire and 'free markets', but they just come up with ever more bizarre handwaves for all for that as well.

The ' middle class' before WW II was small for most of American history, really, and didn't become large until after the war, again as a result of unions, higher wages, and an expansion of the education systems, and a large demographic with disposable income came along.

You indocterated moron, you forgot the biggest God Damn thing



The rest of the world was in ruins and didn't catch up to us till the 80s



God Damn liberals are so fucking ignorant of history


.

Wait until the historians rate the presidents again and then they become communists, ignorant of true American patriotic history, and government historians.

Yes, we're aware of how Republicans were blocking him in an election year. And the employment rate continued to climb back up after a few months, just as it started climbing almost immediately after his his first election gave the country hope instead of more Republican devastatin and misery, so you're still without any kind of historical facts for your fantasies.

The right wing will always condemn FDR's stimulus policies which put people back to work, while building infrastructure, as failed socialist policy. They will always then say that WW2 is what got USA out of the depression. How can they think that wartime spending, which mostly went into blowing things up, more of a way of getting a country out of a depression, than peacetime stimulus spending, which went mostly towards building things up?

 

[Unkotare]

What ended fdr's prolonged depression wasn't increased war spending, it was the END of the war and the lifting of artificial controls over the economy.

[Unkotare]

Another favorite Conservative tactic is to bring Hitler into the conservation.

Tell me which of these programs promoted by FDR for the working class do you despise the most?
Social Security?
Unemployment Insurance?
The GI Bill?
Bank Depositors Insurance?

And tell me why those remind you of Hitler?

Tim McVeigh thought he was helping the working class too. Doesn't earn him praise.
Results earn praise.

Tell me again why Tim McVeigh reminds you of the GI Bill?

You tell us. You're the one using trying to help people as a qualifier for praise.
I am simply pointing out your qualifier is idiotic.

God forbid we have a President who actually tries to help Americans.

....

By throwing them in concentration camps?

US steel production during and after the war....



History of the iron and steel industry in the United States

Graph of US iron and steel production, 1900-2014, data from USGS
The US iron and steel industry has paralleled the industry in other countries in technological developments. In the 1800s, the US switched from charcoal to coke in ore smelting, adopted the Bessemer process, and saw the rise of very large integrated steel mills. In the 20th century, the US industry successively adopted the open hearth process, then the basic oxygen furnace. Since the American industry peaked in the 1940s and 1950s

How many millions of jobs directly and indirectly did the Interstate highway system create in the 1950s?



Why was it built?


For War



On June 29, 1956, President Dwight Eisenhower signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956. The bill created a 41,000-mile “National System of Interstate and Defense Highways” that would, according to Eisenhower, eliminate unsafe roads, inefficient routes, traffic jams and all of the other things that got in the way of “speedy, safe transcontinental travel.” At the same time, highway advocates argued, “in case of atomic attack on our key cities, the road net [would] permit quick evacuation of target areas.” For all of these reasons, the 1956 law declared that the construction of an elaborate expressway system was “essential to the national interest.”

It was originally a concept and plan formulated by FDR in the 30's that had nothing to do with national security. The national security aspect was just an issue to help get it's approval through congress when Eisenhower decided to promote FDR's idea.

And the interstate highway system was a huge benefit to business as well.

Morons just can't read their own sources correctly, either; all they know is the Hive says 'FDR BAD !!!!!" and then dutifully run out and spam message boards with the drivel.

the claim everybody was poor during WW II is some pretty funny stuff; in fact they spent less on consumer goods as most production went into the war effort rather than into golf clubs or Cabbage Patch dolls and the like.

How many millions of jobs directly and indirectly did the Interstate highway system create in the 1950s?



Why was it built?


For War



On June 29, 1956, President Dwight Eisenhower signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956. The bill created a 41,000-mile “National System of Interstate and Defense Highways” that would, according to Eisenhower, eliminate unsafe roads, inefficient routes, traffic jams and all of the other things that got in the way of “speedy, safe transcontinental travel.” At the same time, highway advocates argued, “in case of atomic attack on our key cities, the road net [would] permit quick evacuation of target areas.” For all of these reasons, the 1956 law declared that the construction of an elaborate expressway system was “essential to the national interest.”

It was originally a concept and plan formulated by FDR in the 30's that had nothing to do with national security. The national security aspect was just an issue to help get it's approval through congress when Eisenhower decided to promote FDR's idea.

Wait until the historians rate the presidents again and then they become communists, ignorant of true American patriotic history, and government historians.

Yes. These dishonest astro-turfers always just change the subject and move on to the next made up ideological gibberish, and continue to contradict themselves over and over and over again. And they claim 'everybody else' is just 'indoctrinated' and 'ignorant of history'. Truly hilarious stuff.

Always change the subject fool?

The war is what gave us prosperity for the next 40 years.

Yes, we're aware of how Republicans were blocking him in an election year. And the employment rate continued to climb back up after a few months, just as it started climbing almost immediately after his his first election gave the country hope instead of more Republican devastatin and misery, so you're still without any kind of historical facts for your fantasies.

National Defense Highway System



In 1919, Lt. Colonel Dwight D. Eisenhower accompanied the Army's first transcontinental motor convoy from Washington, DC, to San Francisco, thereby forming an image in the future President's mind of a system of cross continental highways that eventually led to the concept of the National Defense Highway System. During World War II, Gen. Eisenhower saw the advantages Germany enjoyed because of the autobahn network. He also noted the enhanced mobility of the Allies when they fought their way into Germany. President Eisenhower established the Highway Trust Fund to create a funding mechanism that enabled the United States to build a national road network similar to the German Autobahthereby forming an image in the future President's mind of a system of cross continental highways that eventually led to the concept of the National Defense Highway System.
