FDR supposedly is a Great President for "Getting us out of the Great Depression."
Here's the data set.
I see no greatness. I see 8 consecutive years of failure.
FDR US Unemployment 1932: 24.1%, 1933: 24.9, 1934: 21.7%, 1935: 20.1%, 1936: 16.9%, 1937: 14.3%, 1938: 19.0%, 1939: 17.2%. 8 year Average = 19.8%
What's so great about averaging 20% unemployment for 8 consecutive years?
And when you are dust, and no memory of you is to be found, people will still admire Franklin Delono Roosevelt. And destest the memory of the George W. Bush.
