He put americans to work fixing and improving america. We need to invest in our infrastructure badly because we are behind the modern world on that front. We need to stop demonizing teachers and pay them well so they have an incentive to teach our children. We are 25th in the world in education...... pathetic. We need to stop subsidizing these corporations. A lot of these corporations are on "welfare." Not only that, a lot of them pay little to nothing in taxes. We need to penalize these corporations for operating overseas for cheap labor. We need to raise minimum wage. We need to stop demonizing government programs in general. We need to get all of these clowns out of congress and put well educated, qualified people in their positions, like economists. |
No he didn't. Just about No Economist has believed that for 20+ Years. Right or Left wing.
Even the most left wing economists think the New Deal was a HUGE failure because it wasn't big enough... and now suggest it was WW2's massive spending that got us out of WW2. (Though... WW2 in a lot of ways was also a case of extreme austeirty.)
So yeah... put in economists in the polticians place and....
well. They'll actually agree with your position less on that.
