Maybe schools should drop history from their curriculumns
The one thing consistent throughout all Progressive thought is that it is founded on repeated and pathological lies. Once I fully understood just how pervasive this is, how it's down to the DNA level it became so much easier to deal with you fuckers.The economic slowdown in the 1920's actually started in 1927 for most Americans, and unemployment started rising, just a few years after the 1919-1921 recession after WW I. The stock market promised higher returns than investing in real businesses and sucked up money like a sponge, just like all the other 'booms' have, before and after the 1920's, including the current one. The economy began turning around within months of FDR's election, and by 1937 was almost back to pre-Depression levels of output.
As always, large increases in productivity rates caused employment to lag way behind, a recurrent problem throughout the 19th and 20th century, right up to today. Pile 'outsourcing' to 'business friendly' slave labor and sweatshop countries, like Red China and Viet Nam, Mexico, etc. through various scams like NAFTA, CAFTA, et al, and the domestic economy ends up with almost no connection to the Wall Street and Greenwich, Conn. economy people like Mitt Romney and Warren Buffet live in.
I see Frank weighed in to provide a fine example of the clueless cognitive dissonance I was talking about.
Thanks, Frank!
I don't know if you're ignorant, misinformed or just plain stupid and it really makes no difference you got everything totally wrong. But again you can't get to the Imaginary Greatness of FDR unless you're a pathological liar. You also can only disparage the phenomenal record of Coolidge by being a fucking liar
Why do schools even teach history if all historians are liars? Maybe history is a subject that should be dropped from schools along with some science courses and other subjects that raise controversy? Another solution might be two types of history courses: one type taught by historians and another by politicians. Come to think of it this could be my chance to teach medicine. Surely there is controversy in the medical field and I have lots of ideas on medicine. Doctor Regent, M.D. Sounds pretty good.

Not all historians are liars. Only statist historians are liars. There is a difference, but you are incapable of seeing it.
