To:jstan and others, where were the jobs FDR created going to come from? Banks and businesses failed in the thousands, they weren't going to hire anyone. The roads, Hoover Dam, the bridges are a living testament that what FDR did at that time worked. I do not consider myself a socialist, but he did and the nation and its people did what was necessary at the time.
Awesome!
Are we repeating history......?
this film makes me feel like there is hope for us if we work together as we did then
People just don't understand that we cannot put our hopes on politics. Our future does not lay in the hands of men but in our faith of GOD. How many of us truly know who he is and what his plans are for us in the future? Not very many do. And when we get the chance learn and get to know who GOD really is people just turn them away. Our life is not based on politics it's based in our faith.......
