Its not Medicare, Social Security and some of the Welfare State programs that are the problem. It is all the laws being written in favor of the Overclass. It is allowing the banks and lenders to pursue outrageous usury on those that work while the elite Overclass actually get negative interest rates, meaning they get money every time they spend. It is the unconstitutional DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS that is squashing freedom. DEA can just seize your car just for driving down the road with a joint. The police can take your money for no reason at all. The encroaching police state year after year especially since 911. Add TSA to the list, 'the sexualized authority' feeling people up at the airports. Thanks Jew Lieberman for your contribution! Thanks Dubya the Village Idiot. The list goes on and on and on. How the rich have ripped us all off.

Little history lesson, they hate Roosevelt for the same reason they hate Trump. Both from prestigious families, and both wealthy. Both called 'traitors to their class' with Trump being called racist/bigot on top of it. Roosevelt actually used the government to put people to work and make sure elderly had a modicum of income if they lived to see it: Social Security. Trump has done the same sorts of things but for a different time, like building the wall with all America steel. Or making sure his tax cut was broad based for everyone except a very few living in the coastal cities. People compare that to Reagan's 'tax cuts' which were not tax cuts but huge wealth transfer to the Overclass elites financialized investment banker class while many in the middle class had their taxes go up. Trump's tax cuts were for everyone.

Trump ain't no 'conservative' at least how it's been defined since Reagan. He is a nationalist, a populist with some right leaning issues, but overall he is an old fashion FDR/Truman/Eisenhower type liberal.

He was a Democrat from New York after all.
