    Are you curious how those policies were funded, what people out of USian eye- and earshot may have suffered, and who profited the most from it?

      This is a discussion about the history of American labor and the American workplace, FDR’s influence on that, and whether he should be honored for that, or if ored because he made a single mistake, that EVERYBODY has acknowledged was wrong, apologized, and paid reparations.

      His legacy obviously affected the world at large, since he was Commander-In-Chief of one of the Allied Militaries on WW2, and the influence of the Allied victory shaped the New World Order that followed, but that’s a larger discussion for another time.
