The US government and US industrialist have always held many political and business ties to the Nazi movement — before, during and after — WWII.

Why do you guys always skip over the part of history where the racist Democrats switched sides to the Republicans?

And we should listen to Dinesh D'Souza because???
Because he's a nonwhite ex-convict that supports the Republicans agenda.

You're wrong about everything.
It was about the banks it started, and in the end was justified over the banks, taxes are a detail of banks btw.
FDR undid the hard work of good men that died for our economic freedom, and now surprise surprise we're run by a huge central bank again.
You're out of your damn mind if you don't find that to be the saddest true story of American history. The only reason we're even call American at all, and not a colony, was over separation from a central bank. In a nutshell he undid that. Jefferson did a full 1080 in his grave and the world kept on spinning.
Fun fact, FDR had other drafts of the new deal and even an open apology letter to the public, he knew it was the worst possible way EVER to get out of the recession, and he personally knew this made him a traitor to the founding fathers.

A US centralized bank wasn't a fear in a non-global economy dumbass.
The goal was for the USA to have it's own centralized bank no matter what side of the coin you were on.
The great depression era was a completely different story, and centralized or not the money was backed in gold, and thusly removed, thus reverting back to the state prior to the Revolutionary War with a central bank funding the USA, but OTHER COUNTRIES also.
You're literally too dumb and stubborn to talk to over this as you mock your own revisionist history and societal arrogance that you could even remotely be correct in this sentiment when you are not. The USA was made independent over the central bank of England being a # and the USA getting a Hard-on for opposing central banks, larger than the United States. Ultimately it was centralizing the national bank that ruined them and so FDR learned nothing from history and obviously neither did you.
