Tax Lessons From Roosevelt and Obama

                            

Increased taxes were a major part of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, during the 1930’s, along with an expansion of strict political controls. Merely started by President Herbert Hoover, the actions devastated the American economy in the 1930’s.

                           

All this central planning around open and hidden taxes is where we are mired under the present Administration. Yet, with financial history for us to learn from, we have not acquired any practical lesson from the 1930’s Great Depression.

                           

The current Administration has attempted to tax the U.S. out of a

recession, right into a deeper one of stagflation. One, where we suffer from a lack of decent, private-industry jobs, amidst danger of much higher prices. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
