Yup, the so-called “greatest Generation” had the guts in their youth to overcome the FDR Depression and defeat tyranny around the globe, but in their maturity they sowed the seeds for tyranny at home. I lay this all at their feet. they were too gutless to instill decency in their children and voted for the establishment of an ever growing permanent welfare state.
President for life, FDR, was tyranny.
Many nations faced the horrors of fascism and communism as they swept the globe, and America was not totally untouched by that, we did get an “El Presidente for Life” and all that he did to us.
