FDR did what he had to do to get us out of the Depression. Would you have stick with Laissez Faire economics and just let the bottom fall out? I think MacArthur was alright but as someone said the Navy did a lot for him. The OT will probably disagree with me but I think his plan to nuke China was retarded.

You are correct with this statement but he implemented policies and strategies that worked for getting us out of the depression but we are still dealing with expanded versions of those policies. None of which were designed to continue or last as long as they did. Those same policies are literally bankrupting this country today.
Say what you want about FDR but he is responsible for a lot of the social economic differences have today. LBJ doubled down on them to speed up the process.

FDR kept us in the Depression much longer than we should've been.

FDR didn’t get us out of the Great Depression, WWII got us out of the Great Depression.
