the "wages must be HIGH so people can BUY" pic of Roosevelt...
Edited on Fri Oct-14-11 02:58 PM by krispos42
I'm looking for it.


It was in somebody's sigline but I haven't seen it for a week or two. Either the guy changed it, or he's not posted in a while.


anybody know where I can find it?

3. Except when there are monopolies
then prices are high and wages are low because there is no competition.

4. Are you sure it was FDR who said that,
and not Henry Ford? He knew that he had to pay his workers a decent salary so that they could afford his cars. I don't appreciate a lot about him, but at least he understood how the market works, unlike some teabaggers, RepubliCONs, and Libertardians.

5. It was a sigline graphic
It was FDR, but done in the "Obama HOPE" style.

I don't know if he said it, but it's true.
