What is capitalism in their eyes? GM's first-line blue-collar workers are middle class, enjoy decent living and a decent home, and the wealthy are taxed 90% (I suspect its authenticity), everyone has the right to vote, and benefits are equally distributed. Oh god, isn't it communism!
There is nothing wrong with questioning and protesting. Many times they are the driving force for development and reform, but protesters, since you are dissatisfied with the status quo, what do you think the system should be? Are you sure you Out of "benevolence, conscience," "God's will" can create a system that guarantees prosperity? Missing the good times that are gone forever, accepting subprime loans but not being able to bear the risks and painful costs it brings, is Wall Street and the government creating your miserable situation? I am afraid that you have not adapted to this era of competition.
Roosevelt's goal is naturally everyone's wish, job, decent living, economic protection, medicare, education. However, everyone can easily enjoy such treatment, where does the economic foundation come from, and can the real society afford it?

In every society, there's poor and rich, why can't america?
I don't deny the director's conscience, and I don't think the director himself wants a better life for the American people to be realized by, for example, the exploitation of the Chinese people. But if he thinks that a society can be fair and prosperous, as long as the rich 1% are not so greedy, all benefit and no one suffers, I am afraid his idea is too simple. And the class he speaks for, "they forced us to pick up pistols, they deserve it", I am afraid that rooted in their hearts is the greatest capitalism and exploitation, but they do not understand why they no longer benefit.
