FDR is also famous for his [[New Deal]], a set of [[economic planning]] reforms that were meant to bring about the end of the [[Great Depression]], but instead prolonged it and caused American citizens to be burdened with unnecessary government programs for decades to come.
FDR is also famous for his [[New Deal]], a set of [[economic planning]] reforms that were meant to bring about the end of the [[Great Depression]], but instead prolonged it and caused American citizens to be burdened with unnecessary government programs for decades to come. [[Economic growth]] was negligible to non-existent, and what growth did occur was consumed by an every swelling bureaucratic government.
Enforcement of the [[Anti-trust Act]] was considered as an essential instrument to prevent [[cartel]]s and trusts in restraint of trade which were supposed to be deadly to the system of [[free enterprise]]. The New Deal on the campaign trail called loudly for its strict enforcement. Yet immediately upon Roosevelt's accession to office it was suspended in order to cartelize every industry in America on the Italian [[fascist]] corporative model. <ref>''The Roosevelt Myth'', John T.
