«FDR's Folly: How Roosevelt and His New Deal Prolonged the Great Depression» is the historical essay by Jim Powell, published by PRH Christian Publishing in paperback (352 pages, in English).
Historian Jim Powell argues that Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, despite its popularity, deepened the Great Depression: its spending programs, taxes and labor laws would have prolonged unemployment and swollen the federal government. Drawing on documentation from diverse sources, he examines specific policies such as Social Security and contends that without such intervention the American economy would have recovered sooner.
Paperback edition of 352 pages in English, published on September 28, 2004.
Will appeal to readers of American economic and political history and to those seeking a critical reassessment of the New Deal's legacy.
