Indeed. Yikes, our history education is in rough shape.

    I mean something tells me that's one topic that wouldn't be appropriately covered in schools, but that's just my guess.

    When I was a high school student, the New Deal was a topic that was covered with great fanfare. It was as a part of the Early 20th-century unit that led up to the second World War. I partially remember because I was a deluded right-winger at the time and thought it was ridiculous that they were making such a big deal out of a government handout program.
