Raymond, Re: "Roosevelt". The New Deal, incubated in New York under Al Smith and FDR was an attempt to creat a Soviet America and nipped in the bud in its infancy. The Aurthurdale collective agriculture program was an attempt to create a Soviet style agriculture in this country and was almost identical in detail to the forced collectivization of agriculture that Stalin was forcing upon the USSR at the same time. Congress banned this by law and planned to send in the army or state militias to physically dismantle collective slave farms. The New Deal foray into labor relations was an attempt to put American industry under the control of Workers Soviets on the Bolshevik model composed of outside agitators and a minority of disgruntled workers that exist in every working environment. Existing labor unions and plant workers didn't take to the outsiders, throwing many of them down mineshafts and into the furnaces. Taft-Hartley put an end to the attempt. There was a second attempt at the New Deal method in the 1960's but for America's commies its been all downhill since then. Slagle
