The Fair Deal

The Fair Deal

A late summer evening, my wife Kim and I sat down with some of our neighbors
under the side porch of our home in North Chatham, New York, 503rd population We talked
Politics.

Most of us are Democrats. Some of us are old enough to have benefited directly
and the New Deal of Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose family home in Hyde Park
something more than the next group. We all know that the American middle class, as we
I know that today wasCreated largely in the progressive presidential years of Roosevelt. E
We all fear that our democracy is destroyed by radical Republicans in the White
House and Congress are hell bent on destroying the New Deal, and then
our great middle class. As you may remember Franklin D. Roosevelt and others, there are two per cent of
the people more than half of national wealth and can be
Democracy - but you can not have both.

In another desperate moment at home and abroad,Franklin Roosevelt planned some
The ideas, like the Democratic Party could save the Republic. His ideas were
for they were fair. Ideas such as social security, prohibition of child labor, minimum
collective bargaining law, visionary public works projects, government support for farmers and
Arts and small businesses - and the general idea that we are all Americans
we are all together in the company of America, and we have a government in its
appearance as Washington, which shouldfor us. In particular, the idea that detectable
Americans are a people with a decent soul.

We are now desperately trapped in our time. A president of the moral holiday
takes the White House. He and his apologists feel shame for the thousands of
and wives, brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers, husbands
sent to death in a foreign war on their lies. They have no shame, in consultation
with the criminals, no shame in our strippingCivil liberties, not shame befouling
our environment, no shame, the power they have accumulated for themselves and
their friends through the use of fear and ignorance and intolerance - Shameless
to punish all those who dare question their behavior in office.

One is tempted to cry, but too late for that. It 's time to organize a new American
Vision. It 's time for a new understanding of national purpose and decency.

Consequently, my neighbors and I would recommend a couple ofIdeas on how Democrats could
Promise of all by promoting fairness for all.
