THE REVOLUTION WAS by Garet Garrett written in 1938 regarding FDR's Socialistic New Deal. Garet Garrett (1878–1954), was an American journalist writting for the Saturday Evening Post and author. According to Wikipedia, "All his works exemplify the basic premise that a man is responsible for his own life, and that no man can expect a free ride off others, through forced income distribution schemes such as socialism and communism. As the 20th century progressed, he believed that Americans were signing away their birthright of freedom, through trading in their responsibilities of self-governance and self-responsibility, in return for more socialist measures such as Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal."
