Well, we saw the outcome of that last one and the socialist president in the office then.

Yeah, global American hegemony. Just what everybody is predicting ( and gloating over ) the demise of at this point in time. What are you smoking?

That was one of the outcomes. Or rather, near hegemony. You forgot about Russia, a much “advanced” socialist nation. We all know socialists can win wars. Whether or not command economies are the best for peace is another matter.

Obviously I’m smoking on logic. Are you telling me that the “New Deal” was a greatly successful social experiment in regards to helping the U.S. economy or are we forgetting that the whole thing extended the recession? Not to mention the creation of social security and several other programs that have done nothing, but fail.

Here is a good read on the subject. The 100% tax on anything over $25,000 blew me away.
