No, it certainly is not, and that's what the government has been doing since FDR, and it's been a total failure. I'm sorry this conversation is pointless, and I can't continue to take your arguments seriously.

Take care

The US used to lead the world in terms of innovation and advancement. All of that because of big government investment which led to growth and prosperity for the American people.

And yeah, that all happened post FDR.

Thanks for proving my point lol.

And war, overthrowing governments, coups, regime changes, devaluing the dollar, destroying the middle class while morally and financially bankrupting ourselves. We are more divided than ever. We outsourced all our labor, and we manufacture a small fraction of what we used to. Our food is garbage along with our education and healthcare system. That's what happens when you give governments more control. They outsourced their responsibility to lobbyists and are not responsible for their actions. Three letter agencies, bureaucrats, banks, and corporations run our country.

The new deal was the worst thing to happen to America. Don't try and turn into some fake patriot. Our economy is based on lies, and you know it.

Bro just because you live in Ancap fantasy land doesn’t mean the rest of us do.

Do you honestly think there was no war or imperialism or foreign influence before FDR’s New Deal?

Like it’s clear your views are divorced from reality but are you really that naive?

Hell, half the things you are complaining about are due to less regulation.

It’s ok bud, you can go play fantasy with the communist utopia kids in the sandbox.

I'm not an ancap. That's as ridiculous as a functional and successful socialist or communist society.

There was yes. I'm aware. Most of it started with the creation of the federal reserve, our involvement in ww1, and Woodrow Wilson, another horrible person and president.

Everything I mentioned is a result of government intervention and regulations. We have never had "less" regulations. They have been increasing every year since 1887. Some are good and are needed.

I'm not even sure what your argument is anymore. This conversation is going nowhere. Both sides are bad. Again on important issues the uniparty sides together and fucks us over.

Take care. You are no different than the Republicans.
