An editorial cartoon from the Chicago Tribune, 1934.
The cartoon reads:
Planned Economy or Planned Destruction. Tugwell Head. Power. Whoopee! Ickes. Wallace. Richberg. Young Pinkies from Columbia and Harvard. Depleting the resources of the soundest government in the world. ‘It worked in Russia.’ Plan of action for the U.S. Spend! Spend! Spend under the guise of recovery – bust the government – blame the capitalists for the failure – Junk the constitution and decree a dictatorship. How red the sunrise is getting – Stalin. Copyright by The Chicago Tribune. Orr.
Although this is from 1934, it could readily be applied to stimulus, cap and trade, universal healthcare, and any other ridiculous legislation the hard, far left continues to craft. Seriously, these guys are kind of–no they are–socialists.
