23 Achievments Of The Democratic Party by Addictinginfo.org

Here is an excellent article from the great pro liberal and Democratic website 23 Achievments Of The Democratic Party by from August 24, 2011 listing over two dozen achievments of the
Democratic party. Enjoy ;)



"After constant battling back and forth, conservatives and liberals will go to their graves defending their ideology. No matter what side of the aisle you stand on, you have probably had a debate about many issues. At democrats.org they sell a great t-shirt that I have worn myself many times. On the back is a list of 23 great programs brought to you by the Democratic Party. Not surprisingly, many of these programs are today being targeted by the Republican Party who remain as unconcerned as ever that the loss of such programs would lead the United States in a downward spiral…unless people really start standing up for what is right.Here is the list from the back of the shirt. Again, the list could go on forever but these are just a few of the great programs.
1. Women’s Suffrage Movement
2. Securities Exchange Act of 1934
3. Social Security Act
4. Unemployment Compensation
5. Rural Electrification Act
6. Federal Home Loan Program
7. 40 hour work week
8. Minimum Wage
9. Over Time
10. GI Bill
