I guess you're talking about the rise of fascism or perhaps the consolidation of power by the Soviets. These are false equivalencies at best and completely irrelevant at worst. But then that's your stock in trade here.

Now we're looking at paying the price of the New Deal not being a good deal unless something revolutionary occurs soon.
