FDR’s policies prolonged Depression by 7 years, UCLA economists calculate - Frontiers of Freedom

FDR’s policies prolonged Depression by 7 years, UCLA economists calculate

Two UCLA economists say they have figured out why the Great Depression dragged on for almost 15 years, and they blame a suspect previously thought to be beyond reproach: President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

After scrutinizing Roosevelt’s record for four years, Harold L. Cole and Lee E. Ohanian conclude in a new study that New Deal policies signed into law 71 years ago thwarted economic recovery for seven long years.

“Why the Great Depression lasted so long has always been a great mystery, and because we never really knew the reason, we have always worried whether we would have another 10- to 15-year economic slump,” said Ohanian, vice chair of UCLA’s Department of Economics. “We found that a relapse isn’t likely unless lawmakers gum up a recovery with ill-conceived stimulus policies.”

In an article in the August issue of the Journal of Political Economy, Ohanian and Cole blame specific anti-competition and pro-labor measures that Roosevelt promoted and signed into law June 16, 1933.

The Great Depression didn't last 15 years, so there is that. Roosevelt was president for 12 years of which he was a three year war president and the Great depression did not occur during WWII..

New poster here.

Conservative Libertarian leaning. Gun nut. Vietnam Veteran. Retired Engineer. Central Florida.

I didn't vote for Trump because he is a big government Liberal that has continued with the welfare state but he has been the best President of my lifetime. "Best" is a relative term. Certainly better than the last yahoo we had.

On any given day I may tell you that I hate the government but I don't mind paying the County to collect my garbage.

Can I fit in or do I need to move along?

Greetings from south-central Alaska.

I was with the 7th Eng. Bn., 1st FSSG, 1st Marine Div. from 1972 until 1980. I never served in Vietnam though. I got sent to Okinawa in 1973 instead. Who were you with?

I didn't vote for Trump either, for very similar reasons. Like you, I'm a conservative and that is how I tend to vote. I will never vote for an anti-American leftist. Carter held the record for being the worst President, until Obama. Even the impeached Clinton's two terms was not as bad as Carter's one cowardly and disastrous term, and then Obama came alone and stole Carter's record.

I have to haul my own household garbage to the landfill. The USPS won't even deliver my mail, I have to go pick it up. There is also no government snow removal services. I have to hire someone from the private sector to plow my road to the highway if I want to get anywhere during the Winter months. But that is okay, I don't mind the lack of government services. That is why I don't pay any State income or sales taxes, just property taxes which goes primarily to education.
 
Looking for my friends.

Where are they? :shock:

Dumb Americans, huh? You have to be a real idiot to ever vote for a Democrat and one thing America is not short on are Moon Bat idiots.

Democrats are always a disaster and FDR was no exception.

Every other country in the world got over the Depression pretty quickly but that idiot FDR tried to use government to manage everything and like all Left wing policies it failed.

Then there was that stupid Social Security BS, not to mention his demented foreign interventionist policies that resulted in Japan attacking us.

Democrats are the scum of this country. They always have been and always will be.

The US has to pay vast sums per year to Egypt to keep that peace.

I have been saying that for decades. The US has faced no greater threat during its entire 231 years existence than from the Democratic Party. Every atrocity committed against Americans was done at the hand of Democrats, from the Trail of Tears during the 1830s to the illegal imprisonment of tens of thousands of Americans without due process by the fascist FDR during the 1940s. Democrats have killed more Americans than all the foreign wars the US has ever fought, combined. We are still paying for the atrocities and crimes committed by Democrats to this very day.
