I have been brining up TR & FDR and their fight for social justice for quite a while. It seems like Americans do not get it. Perhaps they see this idea as too communistic or something. I do not understand why it seems to be such a radical idea. And I have gotten very little response in my past OPs about the second bill of rights for workers.

But that is precisely where we should be.
