Aside from the sheer pleasure derived from hearing right-winger’s heads exploding all over America, this archived radio broadcast of a liberal Democrat by the name of Ronald Reagan campaigning for President Truman, as well as soon-to-be liberal lion Hubert H. Humphrey, presents an important lesson to Democrats everywhere.
In the radio address, the Gipper is:
- For wage growth
- For Social Security
- For union and fair employment practices
- For school lunch programs
- Against tax cuts for the wealthy
- Against excessive corporate profits
And the money quote? “High prices have not been caused by higher wages.”
Wow, there you go again, Ronnie.
