New Deal Or Raw Deal? by Burton W. Folsom Jr.
How FDR's Economic Legacy Has Damaged America
This book critically examines the New Deal policies implemented during the Great Depression, challenging the conventional narrative that they were wholly beneficial for the American economy. It argues that these policies, rather than alleviating economic hardship, often exacerbated it by increasing government intervention and stifling free-market dynamics. Through detailed analysis and historical evidence, the book suggests that the New Deal's legacy is more complex and less favorable than traditionally portrayed, highlighting instances of inefficiency, political manipulation, and unintended consequences.
