Child mortality was only so high because child labor was in widespread use around the time that Social Security was first implemented.

Yet, Social Security was established around the same time as the end of child labor in this country. It took a few decades to correct (then, lengthened further with the advancements in medical technology), but the laws never kept up.

And all enacted by our first Democratic socialist president who was so popular, he helped pass the constitutional amendment to limit presidential terms so that he didn’t have to serve a fourth time…

… polio is a real motherfucker. Thankfully, he was one of the last generation to ever suffer from it in their developed world.
