Learn all about the best minds (and they acutally were smart) and alphabet soup of laws that FDR enlisted for the new deal.
Fascinating (like a train wreck) stuff.

FDR's Folly documents this at length. A great read. Avaialble at Amazon.Read it last year. It made me very angry for a while. The unusual times and the failure of Herbert Hoover to comprehend them helped usher in FDR and all of his golden boys trying their out their pet economic theories.

Learn all about the best minds (and they acutally were smart) Well, yes.... If 20th Century American history teaches us anything, it's that it takes really smart people to make really big mistakes.
