But it is absolutely arbitrary to think that his New Deal affected the economy only for the duration of his presidency. I agree. Starting with FDR, this country has seen 60+ years of relative peace and prosperity that is in fact the best period in our history. You and yours argue our greatest period is in spite of FDR and his New Deal. I argue you guys are nuts. The market and gdp saw stronger growth during FDR's presidency than any other. Again you argue this was in spite of FDR, that it would have been even better without him. Your case is hypothetical and foolish. Mine is straight forward and based on reality... SD
