FDR's "Economic Bill of Rights"
From FDR Goes To War by Folsoms:
"…an "economic bill of right," which he [FDR] announced during 1944. "Our economic bill of rights," he said, "like the sacred Bill of Right of our Constitution itself—must be applied to all our citizens… These new rights included:
The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or farms or mines of the nation;
The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation;
The right to every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living;
The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home and abroad;
The right of every family to a decent home;
The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health;
The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment;
The right to good education.
"Roosevelt concluded: "All of these right spell security. And after this war is won we must be prepared to move forward, in the implementation of these rights, to a new goals of human happiness and well-being."
FDR knew full well that without going to war there would be no possibility to implement his full program, The Plan, of Communistic socialism (even the Communists have never promised all that FDR wanted to provide all Americans!) and was very anxious to enter the war. In that context, America, under FDR, did everything to provoke Germany and Japan into actions that would "force" America into a war. FDR proved that democracy and wars are a superior road to communism, a form o serfdom, that Hayek warned against just as FDR was planning! There are a thousand pretexts to enter a war and get popular support, including from the poor buggers who die fighting the war to "defend" the state. Very few states have fought more offensive wars than the US.
Obama is just following The Plan, as did GW Bush with his prescription drugs and "homeownership" programs. It is only a matter of few short years before Americans would be forced to pay higher taxes, under whatever guise, including user fees, to support the path to the American version of communism charted by a president who is among the few that Americans admire the most. There is no probable way to reverse the welfare state.

Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street, “Actions That Changed America?”
These two political movements, one on the right and one on the left,” are the latest examples of idiocy, or magical thinking, among born-and-bred America dopes. Hey, morons, we are under the No Change regime. You can vote for GW Bush, or Obama, or Romney, and rest assured that nothing meaningful is going to change. Crooks don’t want any change, other than some cosmetic surgery for better appeal to the dopes, and the System of the Crooks would make sure that there is no meaningful change. Crooks would advance the money needed in any election to guarantee the outcome. Crooks select before dopes can elect! Haven’t you dopes read about Darwin’s theory of Natural Selection?
Sheer stupidity of Tea party and OWS dopes is obvious in how they are being exploited by seasoned dope dealers in both political parties that serve the Crooks. The two parties are organs of the Crooks and make dopes feel that they have a voice and they have a choice. Dumb dopes.

Jas,
Your conversion to the religion of money worship must have melted your brain. Your Austro-Randian fantasy world could never exist and you know it. Other than that, you're all over the place. One day you're a communist another a fascist. Paint us a picture of your ideal country, Jas.
What Unites the American Crooks and the Chinese Crooks?
They both have made fortunes at the expense of working-class Americans! Mostly by pushing debt for consumption purposes. The arbitrator between the working-class Americans and the American and the Chinese Crooks is none other than the Government of the United States of America. And why would the US govt do such a thing? Because the American Crooks have benefited handsomely from the arrangement between the two countries. Chinese technocrats correctly understood the System of the Crooks in America and decided to use it for the benefit of China by getting in bed with the American Crooks, especially, the banking and finance Crooks like Goldman Sachs, who have been very handsomely compensated by the Chinese govt (e.g., allowing GS to by 20% stake in ICBC before it went public). BTW, the same is true of Indian Crooks, but to a much lesser extent.
Nothing shows political impotence of born-and-bred American dopes than what the US govt has been able to do to them, especially their future, and why it can’t be stopped. “What is the alternative?”! “We are going to throw the rascals out.” And replace with worse rascals?!! Blind faith is a terrible affliction.
