I think a few here is fond of the old Franklin Delano Roosevelt, but looking into the actions that he did during the years into the prelude of World War 2 was really interesting. At his behest, he supplied Joseph Stalin and the whole Soviet Union of military equipment and intelligence to prepare for the Nazis. I really don't think that Americans during at the time was on board with supplying another enemy, the communists, with their own handmade products just to hold off the Reich.
Let's not get started with the internment camps he did against Americans of Japanese lineage after the Pearl Harbor attacks, how the Democrats were tight-lipped about it to this day, and the communist project that the former First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt did in Arthurdale, Virginia, that was still left untold on how many people died due to starvation on that god forsaken experiment of hers.
He was more of a fascist, who could probably out-Mussolini Mussolini.
If you look at the Fascist Manifesto, it's spooky just how Progressive it is.
FDR deeply admired Mussolini and fascism.
FDR on fascism: "It's the cleanest … most efficiently operating piece of social machinery I've ever seen. It makes me envious."
FDR was arguably the most authoritarian President that the U.S. ever had.

In terms of harm committed to the nation, only Lyndon Johnson and his Great Society policies can be said to be more disastrous than FDR's policies.

FDR would have never went to war against Germany or Italy where it not for Japan and Pearl Harbor.
FDR admired fascism and the fascists admired him.
I agree that Mises does have a slant on certain issues but here that is not the case.
