They did everything they could to destroy capitalism. Their administrations were infested with communist spies. FDR called Stalin "Uncle Joe" because he was fond of the ole mass murderer. Your last sentence is true, but it's the great tragedy of our age.It's fucking communism. "Aiding" or "supporting" the market is not capitalism, moron. Roosevelt and Truman were a couple of fucking commies. They certainly loved hiring communists into their administrations.I didn't say that. I did say that the government can help the private sector. It can also help people and areas that the private sector often leaves behind.
The rich earn their money from the MARKET which they did not create, they were just born into it. I believe in helping protect and grow the market which means the rich must return a good portion of the earnings to do that since they profit the most from it. Its NOT punishment, its helping to keep the MARKET going so that there can be new Billionaires well into the future. We also want a competitive environment, not one where the rich are able to stamp out all competition through monopoly. One of the best things about capitalism is free and fair competition. The more competitive the market is the better. The Rich threaten that competition when they achieve to much power, and monopoly over certain markets, and use that advantage to crush competition to their personal benefit but to societies detriment.
your paragraph in bold could come directly from the communist manifesto. you, and they, want the government to regulate commerce and to choose winners and losers instead of letting the free market do it.
Nothing the government can ever do will make everyone equally successful, but it can make everyone equally miserable. Venezuela is the latest example of the result of the policies that you are pushing.
Suggesting that the government aid and support the MARKET is NOT Communism. Its the form of Capitalism promoted by Roosevelt and Truman as the opposite of Communism.
The goal is not to make everyone equally successful. The goal is to increase the wealth of the country without leaving people behind in poverty. Making sure a child is fed, safe, and has healthcare is NOT communism.
They certainly were not communist. They did everything they could to save Capitalism from the march of Soviet Communism. Today we live in a world that was created by Roosevelt and Truman.
You are a total idiot without the good sense God gave a goose. THERE ARE NO COMMUNISTS IN THE USA. There are no communists ANYWHERE.
