We are never going to have the progress for working people that we had under Franklin Roosevelt ever again in his country. Maybe in France, maybe in Canada, maybe in the Netherlands – not here, no way. FDR was our greatest president since 1900. If you measure greatness entirely by championing the cause of the advancement of average folks, he was the greatest president ever.
The current democratic congress represents Wimpism at it’s finest. Republicans, of course, are the bigger tools of the greediest amongst us. Just not enough Bernie Sanders(I-VT) in the senate to make a difference. Yeah, there’s also Al Franken and in the house there’s Dennis(Kucinich), Alan(Grayson), Louise(Slaughter) and a few others. Right now I’m thinking another great empire in history in it’s inevitable down cycle.
