First of all, that's a lie. Your article said FDR made the depression worse and longer. You now concede he presided over a recovery. (That's why i called you delusional: You can't seem to tell the difference between a contraction and an expansion.) Why don't you take a little break from impugning people's motives and stand behind your own posts once in a while?

Secondly, the point i was originally making is that the economy and tax revenue grew fantastically well under the high marginal rates of FDR. It has nothing to do with my opinion of FDR. It has to do with economics, debunking the supply side theory that says revenue and economic growth are incompatible with high marginal tax rates. That's demonstrably false as i've demonstrated...
