Sad to say but BIG BUSINESS has ruined America, we are sliding into the status of a third world nation. When FDR devised the New Deal with socialist policies like Medicare, Social Security and Unemployment no on cried socialist, he did what HAD to be done to save a nation on the brink of financial and economic collapse. By the way socialism is not Communism. just ask Europe, Canada and the rest of the developed nations, last time I checked they still had democratic governments ( They hold elections!) The great free market experiment has degraded in greed, fraud and robbery of American citizens. Is this the kind of government you want, one that stands by and watches hard working, honest citizens be brutalized by BB? The government has a responsibility to offer some protection even if it's from American businesses. If FDR socialism is what it takes to get us back on track I say BRING IT ON!
