I LOVE our MIXED ECONOMY :) Doesn't the mixed part come in handy when our banks have to get bailed out and taken over by the government? but...wait....SOCIALISM IS SCARY!!!!!!!!

Although it has shaped our economic system for over the past century.

Here is also an awesome quote about FDR: I was having a debate about someone calling him an asshole.

"And FDR was an asshole for, among other things, bringing public electricity and water utilities to rural and developing communities, leading the nation to becoming the first in modern history to fight and win a war on two fronts, defeating the depression, setting up everything we know about modern American government, irreparably damaging communism in this country which spared us living under that failed experiment, laying the foundation for modern international diplomacy, was the first President to make universal public education a reality instead of a campaign pledge, building roads and sidewalks we still use today, and being in a wheelchair while doing all of it."
