how did we get here? What led here?
and yes I'm posting this on Veeky Forums because I want actual answers as to what policies led to this shit hole today
I know for a fact that FDR is responsible for siphoning away a huge chunk of our income in SS tax and income tax. LBJ is responsible for siphoning away another chunk in welfare
Nixon is responsible for opening trade with China which opened a cheap pool of labor to ship manufacturing base to and also he got rid of the gold standard
Reagan is responsible for muh trickle down and believing neoconservative bullshit
Those 4 presidents seemed to fuck our shit up the most
FDR and LBJ are responsible for taking away a huge portion of your paycheck for scam government programs and Nixon and Reagan for deregulation of shit that shouldn't be deregulated
Also maybe Bill Clinton for causing the housing bubble by forcing banks to sell houses to people who aren't financially sound
Thoughts? And other presidential fuck ups I'm missing? 25 year rule etc
