An Economy Restored: The End to ‘Bail-Out’!
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Lyndon LaRouche takes up the case of President Harry Truman, and how that “London-directed, Wall Street interests’ sometime hat-peddler” was used to betray our nation with his “economic shell-games deployed against the legacy of the President Franklin D. Roosevelt.” Unfortunately, he writes, few among the Congress today have been willing to discuss exactly how the Truman Presidency wrecked the economy then, nor how it was briefly restored under President John F. Kennedy, nor how it entered its 50-year decline after Kennedy’s assassination. “I wish to show you, now, how political swindlers in the likeness of such as Truman and Nixon, or the evil Andrew Jackson earlier, must be defeated, and our republic thus resurrected.”

LaRouche Webcast: No to the Green Policy; Revive Our Credit System
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Restoration of the Glass-Steagall Act is the essential first step to preventing the United States from going bankrupt, but by itself, “it cannot do anything miraculous in terms of changing things,” Lyndon LaRouche said at his Friday Webcast on Dec. 7. The deeper changes required to put the economy on the right track necessitate an understanding of a credit system, as conceived by Alexander Hamilton and other economists of the American System—not the British free-trade system.
