"...FDR tried to balance the budget as promised and discovered the theory that supported balancing the budget to repair the economy did not work. It led to the '37-38' recession..."
And this, you liar: LewisDouglas quit the Budget Bureau in 1934 in protest against FDR's spending
"The Defining Moment: FDR's Hundred Days and the Triumph of Hope,"
By Jonathan Alter....p. 324
1934!!!
Lewis Douglas was not the top economic adviser or official in the FDR administration. Rexford Tugwell was and Douglas was frustrated with constantly being overruled by FDR because of Tugwell's advice. To complicate it more Douglas would pick and choose which New Deal programs were OK and which he judged to be not OK. He had promised to be a team player and turned out not to be anything close to a team player. He came in with a new administration and was gone after a year and a half.
Wrong again. Lewis Douglas was appointed Director of the Bureau of the Budget in 1933. That made him one of FDR's top economic advisers until FDR decided to go on a spending binge. After which he broke ties with him altogether in 1934.
Rexford Tugwell was kicked out of the administration in 1936, given that he had an ever increasing opposition to FDR's policies. His opposition was just so that people started calling him (falsely) "Rex the Red," an insinuation that he was a communist.
Stop lying camp. Just...stop.
You need a better source than something like Wikipedia. Rexford Tugwell was part of the famous "Brain Trust" and was a top adviser to FDR before he became President. He was offered any position he wanted and could have gotten the Douglas job if that is what he wanted. Douglas went along with many New Deal programs but as stated previously, he turned out not to fit on the team and not to be a team player. He was gone after about a year. Tugwell remained until 1937, serving the entire first term plus. He became frustrated and it became obvious that his efforts on suburban planning and moving urban residents into rural areas was not going to fly. His plan was in fact ruled unconstitutional. That was the deciding factor and he decided to end his association as the false claim of him being a communist began to surface. He resigned and was not as you claim kicked out. In fact a positive relationship with FDR continued and after a short stint as the Chairman of the NY planning commission FDR appointed him as the Governor of Puerto Rico were he was able to implement many of his ideas, build infrastructure, improve health and education and bring free elections the territory.

Notice how I give links to back up what I say. I invite folks to check out the accuracy of my comments and enjoy giving the opportunity to others to go even further in understanding a topic than merely my few words of comment or analysis. That is not what liars do. What is it that you are accusing me of lying about? You called me a liar for giving some analysis as to why Tugwell left the administration, even though I provided links. Now I have provided two more. So what is your analysis based on that provides the evidence you use to call me a liar and make your own analysis truthful or accurate?
