Reagan & Conservatives -- Revisonist History 101

[JoeB131]

[quo

Coolidge inherited an economy with 18% unemployment and brought it down to 4% in 2 years. By the end of Coolidge second term you could not find an unemployed person in America.

FDR oversaw the worst economy since the 7 Biblical Lean Years with unemployment averaging 20% over his first 2 terms.

Which one of these 2 President has a Great economic record?

No, he didn't. Where are even getting this shit from?

Also should point out that Coolidge inherited a crappy economy from.. Warren G. Harding- the guy who picked him as a running mate. Harding fought the 1921 recession by actually instituting welfare programs and public works.

Coolidge failed in that he didn't provide the kind of oversight that was needed to avoid what happened in 1929.

Coolidge was NOT chosen by Harding. In those days, the VP was elected by the party.

There was a depression in 1920 that few know of. Depression of 1920?21 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coolidge allowed the economy to correct itself and did not interfere the way the two fools Hoover and FDR did later in the 1930s...which only prolonged the Great Depression causing tremendous suffering.

The depression of 1920 was over in 1921 and the economy boomed for the rest of the decade. The same thing could have happened with the Great Depression, had Hoover and FDR not interfered massively.

One would think W and BO would learn from history, but no. Too many fools become POTUS...and cause terrible damage. When will Americans ever learn....big uncontrolled government always causes problems?

Guy, you are getting your history a bit mixed up here.

The recession of 1920 (largely caused by the international chaos caused by World War I and the Spanish Flu Epidemic, which between them killed 30 million people worldwide) was actually very breif and over by 1921, and like every other recession was solved by a influx of government spending on infrastructure. Harding really was of the progressive mold.

Idiot Coolidge didn't become president until 1923 when Harding died. And, yes, the US was in the catsbird seat because in the post-war order, everyone else was still rebuilding while the US was surging.

Unfortunately, what he didn't do was provide proper oversight of the markets, which is what lead to the 1929 disaster, which was so bad, no one REMEMBERS 1920.

I consider Coolidge first term a continuation of what harding started so together they inherited a contracting post war economy and corrected it in record time

Rounding up the Fed governors was the only thing that would have prevented the crash

Except that wasn't true, either. The contraction that occurred after WWI ended by 1921, before Harding really had a chance to institute any policies.

Nothing you stated disputes what I stated. It is well known that Coolidge did not interfere in the economy. Yes, by the time he assumed the office of POTUS the depression of 1920 was over. But, had he been an interventionist, as you seem to think he and Harding should have been (ignoring the interventionist failures of Hoover, FDR, W, Big Ears, etc...) things would have been much worse.

The Great Depression was the result of constant interventions by Hoover and FDR. Had they not intervened, it might have been over in 1930.

Coolidge was not an idiot. He was one of the best presidents we ever had. He abided by the Constitution...something most presidents fail to do...and apparently you much prefer. The idiots were Hoover and FDR...much like the idiots W and Big Ears.

 

[bendog]

Only the word of those who crafted the new deal.... Facts are facts.

naw. If you have any academic economic studies tending to show an alteration to the new deal would have somehow altered worldwide deflation, I'd be more than happy to try to understand them. But, I haven't seen any.

Then you haven't looked have you? They all say that is prolonged the depression by at least 6 years.

No they don't say that. Rather, within monopoly controlled markets, growth was restrained. However, nothing shows the worldwide depression was affected, and the cause was a worldwide lack of demand brought on by deflation, which was largely caused by austerity by bankers.

amen to that.

Thats why I and another poster were saying earlier that you got to go back several decades back to Calvin Coolidge to find our last GREAT republican president we had that served in office.

Thats why you dont see monuments everywhere of calvin coolidge like you do of FDR or ever hear his name mentioned along with other great presidents like washington,Jefferson,and Lincoln and why you do with FDR and reagan because the establishment brainwashed american society that presidents like FDR and reagan were great men and great presidents, never mentioning their actual atrocities they commited at the time.

Coolidege gets short shrift because his successor, Hoover, followed Coollidge's predecssor's, Harding's, response to the economic downturn, and it turned disaster into catastrophe because the causes of both downturns were very different. Of course europe didn't help.

Coolidge benefitted from a bubble, like Clinton did, one that was fueled by an inflow of gold into the country.

I believe Silent Cal was sworn in at 2 in the morning at his cabin in Vermont by a JP after learning that Harding died.

He also decided against running for President in 28 because he believed his abbreviated first term counted as 2 terms served.

How different it might have been had he ran and won

Yeah, he could totally fucked it up and the Communist Party would have won in 1932.
