This is not the only time a city, state or the federal government has done something similarly stupid. FDR had pig farmers slaughter millions of pigs to artificially keep pork prices up during the Great Depression. The problem with that is it wasn't long before the nation had a pork shortage and that didn't help the farmers because their pigs were gone and they couldn't sell any more.

FDR did not steal all the pigs, he was slaughtering some of them so that the farmers would be able to afford them, and also so that the economy can get back on track from hoovers mistakes. The pigs would take up pig farmer's money so they could buy food. This would raise pig prices so the farmers, WHO WERE HIT THE HARDEST, would have money to support themselves, as too many pigs means that pork prices would be dirt cheap. And if you believe that this caused big prices to raise to a price most people could not afford, then your wrong. The new deal provided many, many jobs for unemployed people, as provided money to most. The only problem was government deficit, but it was necessary with the great depression so far in and it not fixing without drastic means of saving it.

I never said FDR stole pigs. I said he made the farmers slaughter their pigs. It had nothing to do with the farmers being able to afford pigs. That makes no sense. It was to artificially keep pork prices high. The idea was the keep supply less than the demand so the prices would go up. It was supposed to benefit the farmers and it did for about 10 minutes.

I never said that the price of pork products were unaffordable, although when nearly everyone was out of work everything is unaffordable.

The New Deal was absolute failure. If forced businesses to sell at government set prices, businesses could only operate at government approved hours. No one could work longer than government approved hours. No one was allowed to work overtime to try to earn a little extra to make ends meet.

You are correct when you talked about Hoover's mistakes. But all FDR did was continue every failed policy that Hoover started and added more failure on top of that.

In 1939 Henry Morganthau Jr - the Secretary of Treasury under FDR - said:

"We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work. And I have just one interest, and if I am wrong ... somebody else can have my job. I want to see this country prosperous. I want to see people get a job. I want to see people get enough to eat. We have never made good on our promises. ... I say after eight years of this Administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started. ... And an enormous debt to boot"

FDR did not fix the economy he worsened it and dragged it through the mud for all 4 terms of his administration. The economy finally began to rebound the day FDR died in office.

FDR was one of the worst presidents we have ever had. He had absolutely no clue how to get us out of the depression and everything he did just made it worse.

When compared to the stock market crash of 1919-1920, Warren G. Harding (who also died in office) and Calvin Coolidge got us out of that crash within 18 months. Why? Because they understood economics and Hoover and FDR didn't. The circumstance surrounding that crash were very similar to the 1929 crash. No one has ever heard of it because when went from crash to booming economy (the roaring 20's) in 18 months. Hoover and FDR were idiots.

oh wait, I meant to type slaughter.I did not mean to type steal. My bad. But at its core, It was opinionated. Some people will agree, as some disagree. FDR had critics. The reason FDR took so long was because the economy was extremely deep into the depression, and it would have been impossible to right it like that.

I know that a lot of people look at FDR as one of the greatest presidents ever. Just the fact that he locked up Japanese, German and Italian Americans just because we are at war with the country of their ancestors should be enough to drop him down to the bottom of the list. No other president has ever done anything like that with the except of John Adams and Woodrow Wilson.

John Adams passed a sedition act and as a result about 5 innocent people were sent to prison. When Jefferson became president he release all 5.

Woodrow Wilson also passed a sedition act. I can't remember how many he locked up but I think it was in the thousands. He told the prison guards to do whatever they wanted to the female prisoner. I know that act has been repealed but I don't know who did it. Probably Warren G Harding who followed Wilson.

Wilson was perhaps the worst president ever. He is right there with FDR, Obama, LBJ and Carter. Clinton was a bad president but even with his Lewinsky scandal couldn't hold a candle to the damage those other presidents caused.

And from what it looks like Biden is trying his hardest to be a part of the rotten president lists. If he follows through with the World Economic Forum's Great Reset he will be the worst of the worst. He already used the Great Reset slogan as his campaign slogan, "Build Back Better". The World Economic Forum wants to collapse the world's economy to end Capitalism (freedom) and replace it with Socialism (slavery). And because Socialists are absolute morons when it comes to economics this will cause possibly millions of death from starvation.

And steal the people's personal wealth through "civil asset forfeiture" and "highway interdiction" (literally highway robbery).
