the expansions of FDR and LBJ were still within the gold standard, which Nixon broke. Clinton was about balancing the budget and he refuted the keynesians even more than Reagan, since they could still point to his large deficits as ‘stimulus.’ Carter had deficits but he was very austere (I don’t think that the separation of the Dept of Ed from the Dept of HEW was equivalent to a new New Deal).

This will be the first New Deal that is completely unrestrained.

Lyndon Bird should be roasting in hell for what he did with his 'Great Society.'

With that abortion of a scheme he broke up functional black families and neighborhoods by replacing the once-proud wage earner and parent with a welfare check and food stamps.

He turned wives, mothers and daughters into welfare whores and the rudderless kids stumble around the 'hood selling and using drugs and are a totally unnecessary burden on the penal institution.

Thanks to Democrat stupidity we have a burgeoning underclass that as the nation's economic conditions worsen (and believe me, they will) will rise up to invade our homes and rob, maim or kill us.

We are poorly served by these elite political class numbskulls who have completely ruined a once great nation.

When the civil unrest erupts it will be on their pointed heads.

klinton was a budget balancer? Do you know that NOT ONE of his budgets was used to balance the budget? That from ‘95 forward, WHEN the budget was balanced and a surplus was projected, each and all of his budgets were declares DOA, thrown out and replaced with budgets written by Republicans?
