    Which Roosevelt...the good one or the cripple?

    The one elected to 3 terms
    The selfish cripple.

    Got it.
    If you want to call working to get the US out of the great depression, while also helping the free world fight off Nazism -- selfish, that is your choice.

    By the way, Trump dislike's cripples too. Nice company you are keeping.
    He did jack shit for 9 years then got Pearl Harbored into the war.

    Bullshit! He banged so many women, even Kennedy couldn't catch up with him. Eleanor was a dyke, and ole FDR had his pole-smoking mistress living at the white house for awhile. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    He got a lot of New Deal programs passed into law, to protect American jobs and create Social Security. Most of those have been repealed or neutered with the bipartisan support of Democrats, who claim to support American workers, but don't. And when Social Security gets raided, which it will, Democrats will support the effort, no matter what they say today.
    Social Security is part of the problem

    In this thread: right wing Nazi sympathizers that blame Roosevelt for bringing us closer to communism. I have some distant cousins in Montana that loved John Birch and agree with you guys and like to call Roosevelt the guy that destroyed amerika.

    Fighting Nazism and the Japanese in World War II got us out of the great depression. They were one in the same, not one separate from the other.
    And 10 years after the war, we raised taxes to 90% top tax rate to pay for the war.

    No it isn't. Congress borrowing from Social Security is the problem, and financially illiterate people who refuse to raise the retirement age, given the 10+ year increase in life-expectancy since the 1930's.

    FDR had a worse recovery than Obama

    So that explains your shrill tone and reactionary politics. I knew self-hatred was in your roots, and now I know where. Thanks for sharing.

    All that needs to happen to fix SS is to remove the cap at which incomes are taxed.

    So, as always, the answer is "raising taxes."

    Wrong. Very wrong. Seriously, Ozone, where does your undying faith in big government come from? Have you studied any history of Social Security? Or do you just read HuffPo? When it runs a surplus, congress borrows from it and doesn't pay it back. This happens when people like yourself endorse everything big government does, only to realize, way too late, that you can't trust people who won't be there when it comes time to pay the tab. Are you fine with 50 trillion in national debt? Or twice that? B. Clinton finally ran a budget surplus, Bush gave it all away in tax cuts endorsed by Greenspan, then Obama - BREAKING HIS CAMPAIGN PROMISES - made those tax cuts permanent, despite conducting two wars.

    Why do you think democrats aren't lying whores just like the R's you hate? Why are you so worried and dependent upon an HRC victory to be hysterically posting about it several times a day, every day? What are you afraid of?

    Actually Obama didn't make those tax cuts permanent. Extended some of them through about 2011 such as the SS tax cut. But the taxes on the wealthy went back up to 39.6% during Obama's tenure.

    And every scenario is different, but for SS, with the baby boomers, unless we get significant increase in people in the country, SS will need a tax increase our a reduction of benefits to be solvent. Would you prefer to increase taxes on those making over $118k a year? Or cut benefits to our seniors?

    Reality is politicians on both sides are not willing to do either.
