Unseating FDR

JOHN TIERNEY writes about Republicans rolling back the mild socialism founded under FDR:

To some Republicans, the start of this presidential term is their moment, their chance to become the permanent majority party with a new vision that goes by various names: the ownership society, the Conservative New Deal, the New New Deal.

But can they really significantly trim seven decades of ever-growing programs? Can the New Deal government be rolled back?

A good read. I’d like to see many government programs scaled back. The beast is almost too big to feed.

    The Republicans want to roll back the New Deal? Oh, if only it were true.

  2. tgirsch Says:

    Well, there’s definitely a wing of the Republican party that wants to do just that, but not necessarily the party at large. Particularly with GWB in office, the social conservative wing of the GOP is getting a lot more say than the fiscal conservative wing, and that’s to the GOP’s detriment.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
