This is why it's important for us to understand our true history. They silenced him because he called FDR a "liar, betrayer, and double-crosser", but their own histories openly celebrate FDR for being exactly that. This should put the final nail in the coffin for libertarian dogma, aka "the free markets will save us!" There's no such thing. All markets rely on state force to set the laws and safeguard them. Markets not owned by any group will quickly get conquered by a group, because groups are always stronger than individuals in any form of competition. History is littered with the corpses of people who spoke truth to power, got crushed, and then were forgotten. There's at least a half dozen good ones per generation.
