8. Because FDR was a Communist |
|
And anything that isn't pure capitalism is communist. Vietnam didn't really do anything that we didn't do after the Revolutionary War, redistribute our land. But because they were taking it from a colonial power and not putting capitalism in its place, it was evil. Pure conservative Republicans truly believe it when they say social security and all of FDR's programs are socialist/communist and evil. Reagan framed it all beautifully and brainwashed an entire generation. Now we've got people who don't believe that they are truly trying to dismantle these programs while also not getting how horrible it would be if we truly had free market capitaism and absolutely NOTHING ELSE. The Gilded Age.
