Where do the Republicans want to take us?
Let's step back a bit.
In 1932, the country elected FDR as POTUS. He promised to create federal government programs to end the Great Depression. Within 100 days, he signed the New Deal into law, creating 42 new agencies over time. /2
They were designed to create jobs, allow unionization, and provide unemployment insurance. Many of these programs still exist. They aim to help safeguard the economy and prevent another depression.
Which New Deal programs still exist? /3
The FDIC , The FNMA , The SEC, The FHA, and the FCC. The Soil Conservation Service remains as the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
Perhaps the most notable New Deal program still in effect is the national old-age pension system created by the Social Security Act (1935)!!!
Removing these programs would put us back in a depression. These programs renewed our confidence in our economic systems, now under attack by corruption and greed. Our economy, which is still under pressure from #45 and GOP obstruction, would collapse.
