This 1st New deal always sends chills down my spine: a corporatist big state idea that seems just so incredibly wrong that I’m always surprised that more people haven’t opposed FDR at that point of time. But it’s quite clear many were quite fascinated by non-democratic countries of the time.
Social democracy traditionally is more or less the same as New Deal liberalism (although broader than say what AOC means by "democratic socialism"). So pretty much yes!
@@emperoremperor1486 Absolutely. Although I'd say it's bigger than Covid. There's a complete revolution going on in our economic and social system creating a stream of new and related problems that we're neglecting creating a similar loss in the sense of legitimacy the Depression caused (or the industrial revolution caused creating the Bryan realignment). We've been unable to respond to any of them.
@@FrankDiStefano I disagree,the 2 parties have aligned themselves at least on social issues,the Dems liberals with a reborn progressives wing and the Reps conservative with a increasingly reactionary wing. Economically both of your parties seem pretty miserable tho.

Thank you. I wish I could have a lecture a day. Very interesting.
Oh man I just found this channel and I gotta wait for the next episode.
Looks like I gotta go start at episode 1.
Wow! The NRA looks to be copied from Mussolini's homework!!! A carbon copy of what Mussolini called "Corporatism."
Roosevelt saved Capitalism from itself. 😮
At the economic level isn't that just SocDem ideology?
