Thank-you Sailing! I often remember the inspirational words- but i have a heck of a time with names....
HMMMM. I wonder what kind of New Deal we could fund with $700 billion...
The above quote was by one, George Santayana,(an early 20th Century Hispanic-American philosopher...who by the way is very "right on" and contemporary about alot of his philosophies and views on our culture....then and now. (my opinion) however, I think the quote by George Bernard Shaw is also accurate..."We Learn from history that we learn nothing from history."
Please do not delete this thread too.....we are being nice!
LMAO
DELETE THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I disagree with you , so this whole thread should be removed.........lol
History shows that the New Deal solved the crisis. Some very erudite scholars who have studied the depression and the New Deal suggest that another New Deal is exactly what we need to get out of this depression.
It's too bad our politicians didn't learn when they made the "New Deal" in the 1930s as well. Here we are again! Only this time, I think we're screwed big time!
