Idiot of the Day: Steve Austria
"When (President Franklin) Roosevelt did this, he put our country into a Great Depression. He tried to borrow and spend, he tried to use the Keynesian approach, and our country ended up in a Great Depression. That’s just history." - Steve Austria on Economic Stimulus Plan
Darrel Rowland of the Columbus Dispatch adds, "Most historians date the beginning of the Great Depression at or shortly after the stock-market crash of 1929; Roosevelt took office in 1933."
