Franklin Roosevelt wanted an Economic Bill of Rights. It’s time to bring such a plan back to life.

FDR worked with the Soviets, just the opposite of Biden with his proxy war, bleeding lives and money.

Franklin Roosevelt wanted to preserve capitalism Franklin Roosevelt threw Japanese Americans in concentration camps Franklin Roosevelt helped paint Mexican Americans as scapegoats for the Great Depression

It's absurd to talk about an Economic Bill of Rights, when no one talks about dismantling the Pentagon's budget, its endless wars, and 800 foreign bases. All Americans lives would improve if the 858 billion given to the Pentagon were reallocated to M4A, infrastructure, & climate.

Do we have to give credit to FDR though. Plenty of segregationist were for helping the public as long as it was just the white public throughout history.

This was based on the people being useful. Which was the majority was back then. Now we have a majority that wants it for free. They don't want to work for it or do anything. They just expect it. Having a worthless majority in a society becomes unsustainable.
