Are you trying to say something intelligent and expose who the liars really are. Where
in fact both parties are lying their hats off, then and now.
ie from
Myths of the great depression including the myth that FDR was at first a
Socialist that Republican President Herbert Hoover really started off.
https://fredericbastiat.com/GreatDepression.htm "Unemployment in 1930 averaged a mildly recessionary 8.9 percent, up from 3.2 percent in
1929. It shot up rapidly until peaking out at more than 25 percent in 1933. Until March 1933,
these were the years of President Herbert Hoover—the man that anti-capitalists depict as a
champion of noninterventionist, laissez-faire economics.
Did Hoover really subscribe to a “hands off the economy,” free-market philosophy? His
opponent in the 1932 election, Franklin Roosevelt, didn’t think so. During the campaign,
Roosevelt blasted Hoover for spending and taxing too much, boosting the national debt,
choking off trade, and putting millions of people on the dole. He accused the president of
“reckless and extravagant” spending, of thinking “that we ought to center control of every
thing in Washington as rapidly as possible,” and of presiding over “the greatest spending administration in peacetime in all of history.” Roosevelt’s running mate, John Nance Garner,
charged that Hoover was “leading the country down the path of socialism.”[4] Contrary to
the modern myth about Hoover, Roosevelt and Garner were absolutely right."

"This is what candidate Roosevelt promised, but it bears no resemblance to what President Roosevelt actually delivered.
In the first year of the New Deal, Roosevelt proposed spending $10 billion while revenues
were only $3 billion. Between 1933 and 1936, government expenditures rose by more than
83 percent. Federal debt skyrocketed by 73 percent."

"Commenting decades later on Hoover’s administration, Rexford Guy Tugwell, one of the
architects of Franklin Roosevelt’s policies of the 1930s, explained, “We didn’t admit it at the
time, but practically the whole New Deal was extrapolated from programs that Hoover started.”
