FDR's 4 terms also stimulated term limits. Of course taxing corporations and the rich are "popular ". There are more poor people than rich people.

Hear ye, hear ye, Babylon has fallen 😢

I love listening to Richard Wolff. He’s a realist.

[cptmuffy]

Dang, this is the only public intellectual other than Noam. Chomsky that knows his history and understands it.

[adelchidipalma]

And there is no law in the US, Canada or any nation which makes the people liable to pay direct taxes.

You can tax the rich and be adored by the people who you represent, or you can not and be one of the rich. It is the most straightforward choice for any good judeo/Christian politician.
Our problem is we are a chistian nation. Nothing good can come from that.

[barrylafleur]

Tax the church and universities already. WTF?

[grapentine]

Both political parties of the establishment will give their base some incrementalism to keep us hopeful and needy but when things get very bad they will give us a FDR for some fundental change that is intended to be cut and done away with over time

[adelchidipalma]

Its what you don't say that is powerful and you Richard don't have the guts to say what should be said.

The Aipac and Military Contractors Complex will never allow the public yo gain control of there government.

And we may be looking at a third Trump 😢

[tomgrossi]

You forgot to mention during war time and he was in a wheelchair if my history was correct

[Dalphon-Mecko]

And he was the most evil pres we ever had

[molk]

Another bright person thinking that taxing corporations will not affect the customer. Taxing corporations sounds good but in reality those costs are being passed on to customers.

What about the ancient evil jb better known as the walking dead or the butcher of Gaza?
