“It is indeed a crisis but one that was, to an embarrassing extent, made right here in America. It was foisted on Puerto Ricans by one lousy New Dealer in particular. His name was Rexford Guy Tugwell. By 1941, Rexford Guy Tugwell had behind him a 20-year career of pontificating for big government and managing expensive government flops. Somehow that gave Franklin Roosevelt the idea of naming him governor of Puerto Rico. What Tugwell did for the mainland, he could now do for an island. Maybe this central planning stuff works better if you work small, right?”
