      Yeah, I agree. As conservatives go Ike was pretty reasonable.

      My point was that almost as soon as the party got the Whitehouse again, influential portions of it started to plot for the next Great Depression like catastrophy.

      As an ideological movement, they’ve proved many times that they cannot be trusted with power.

        The rich people made a lot of money from the last Great Depression, I bet that’s what they’re hoping for again.
