Much less, then. Hoover campaigned against the creation of Social Security and the FDIC - both programmes Reagan supported.

Hoover opposed them after 1932. Reagan supported them after 1932.

I know that you believe the old Austrian canard that Hoover governed as a proto-New Dealer. The problem, you see, is that it isn't true.

You're right.

Hoover rejected the idea of bailing out failing banks. Reagan bailed out the savings and loans industry.
