When History Proves It Fails? The main suggestion the recently weakened Republican Party has made to get us out of the recession is to freeze spending. Thats what Herbert Hoover did, and it made the Depression worse. Why can't the Republicans contribute a more substantial idea?
 
Haven't heard that one. Hoover didn't get the opportunity for any of his plans to work. He was out by 1933. History proves, however, that the depression was worse in 1938 than it was in 1933 and that was due to FDR spending plans that are very similar to Obama's. So we know THEY don't work, period!

Oh, and you Democrats are strengthening the Republican Party every day. Keep it up!
 
NO Roosevelt made it worse with the New Deal which competed with and crowded out private business thus deepening the Depression. Learn your history.
WW2 got us out not the massive Demoncrat spending.
 
So how does spending like there is no tomorrow help the economy. A spending freeze is only part of the solution. The other part is to cut taxes equally across the board. You must do both to help the economy.
 
A spending freeze would just make things worse, because even more people would be out of work....not just on the federal level but on every state's level as well. Not a good idea, which is why we can't afford to listen to the GOP.
 
They don't quite understand that cash flow and consumption is what consumer based economies depend on for stability and strength.

They start with an ideology and cherry pick facts in order to justify that ideoloy.
