1934 all over again? This 1934 cartoon says it all

Notice the guy painting the sign. “SPEND! SPEND! SPEND – Under the guise of recovery – bust the government – blame the capitalists for the failure – junk the Constitution and declare a dictatorship” There really is nothing new under the sun.

Off to the left it says “It worked in Russia” ; Off to right is Stalin saying “How red the sunrise is getting” ; The sign under the robed collegians reads “Young pinkies from Columbia and Harvard” ; and on the back of the wagon “Depleting the resources of the soundest government in the world”

Seems like we have to beat back the socialists again
