Absurd FDR comparisons from DNC of immigration and lack of effective GOP response. INFO to SOLVE

I have encountered many left wing people mostly dems saying that FDR's social programs like the National Recovery Association, Social security etc.. was the reason America came out of the depression. And even invoked his name in the immigration debate saying Obama's immigration policy was like FDR and will get us out of the depression. First of all the intervention from the government prolonged the depression in my opinion. Second Many of GOP Hoovers policy were beneficial. Both GOP HOOVER & DNC FDR oversaw massive deportations of mexican illegals in the number of millions.

"Immigration dropped sharply during the lean years of the Great Depression. After the stock market crashed in 1929, the U.S. tightened visa rules which markedly reduced Mexican immigration. Local, state and federal government officials debated what to do with those already here. Some Mexicans repatriated themselves either voluntarily or under pressure from local welfare officials. Others were deported. Eventually between about 500,000 to 1,000,000 Mexicans left the United States between 1929 and 1939. This was due to deportation, as well as other factors such as the threat of deportation and acute unemployment."

"This repatriation began during President Herbert Hoover's administration and reached its peak in the early 1930s. It also applied to all alien groups, not just Mexicans. Hoover believed they were taking jobs from Americans, and endorsed a vigorous effort to reduce legal and illegal entries and expel "undesirable aliens." Deportations and repatriations of Mexicans and others decreased (along with legal immigration) during President Franklin Roosevelt's administration, during the Great Depression, but did not end. In July 1935, for example, Roosevelt ordered a large deportation of alien criminals (such as mail robbers), but exempted Mexican and Canadian criminals due to the fear that they would sneak back in."

"The federal government has not apologized for the repatriations. In 2006, representatives Hilda Solis and Luis Gutiérrez introduced a bill calling for a commission to study the issue, and called for an apology.[18]"

(Lucy Gutierrez is a waste of money )

The West is lacking leaders and when misinformed DNC & GOP run around spouting off BS it is problematic and shows there is educational work to be done. And I am still waiting for legislation to allow gringos to flood mexico.

# From 1924 - 1947 the USA was considered a "non immigration country" for the most part.
