Post #316,132 by Mycroft_Holmes_Iv 10/24/09 7:00:58 AM Reply	Actually your both wrong This occurred under Nixon, not Carter (or FDR) Although, someone could argue that it lead to the gas lines under Carter -- naw...that would take the stigma off of Carter.

It has been nearly universally accepted as a really bad move. My response was simply to say we've done stupid things before and we're apparently primed and ready to do stupid things again. I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

Post #316,173 by boxley 10/25/09 9:44:31 AM Reply	repos that used to be democrats maybe we had wage and price controls from hoover till kennedy then johnson launched the war on poverty and quickly got enmired I think carter was the first to repeal most of that with reagan repealing the rest. Now we are rapidly going towards the nixon model
