Interesting article. Anything Mellon Foundation I equate with the Lib/Progressives types.

I like the part of the article below. While it's about FDR it's like deja vu all over again.

'H. L. Mencken was spot-on when he wrote that the President was surrounded by “an astonishing rabble of impudent nobodies,” “a gang of half-educated pedagogues, nonconstitutional lawyers, starry-eyed uplifters and other such sorry wizards.” The New Deal, Mencken opined, was a “political racket,” a “series of stupendous bogus miracles,” with its “constant appeals to class envy and hatred,” treating government as “a milchcow with 125 million teats” and marked by “frequent repudiations of categorical pledges.” And, I might add, it didn’t cure the Great Depression; it prolonged it. (Note to FDR apologists: Before you send me bumper stickers and one-liners about what a savior FDR was, read this first.)'

I didn't know anything about Andrew Mellon before reading this article. Thanks for posting.
