Within this political milieu, Nixon's policies would be more at home in a Green Party platform (i.e. politically unfeasible). Not only did he create the EPA (as Bacha pointed out) and OSHA, but he also proposed a corporate tax policy that would be considered ridiculously leftist in this era. It made me smirk every time I heard that guy from Fox (a real ladies man!) refer to Obama as "the radical left." Are his followers complete morons? Does the finance industry fund the electoral campaigns of "the radical left" lock stock and barrel? Oh well, I guess critical thinking is somewhat of a lost art for a certain segment of the US population.</p></blockquote><p></p>
