The recently released Fool Me Twice documents second term plans that come right from FDR’s playbook – most prominently an updated version of the WPA within the Department of Labor.
Fool Me Twice, now in its fourth week on The New York Times bestseller list, documents the support of progressive groups tied to the White House for the 2011 21st Century Works Progress Administration Act.

The bill, proposed by Sen. Frank R. Lautenberg, D-N.J., proposes projects similar to those of an earlier era, including residential and commercial building weatherization; residential and commercial water use efficiency improvement; highway, bridge, and rail repair and maintenance; manufacturing projects; school, library, and firehouse construction; soil erosion and pesticide runoff prevention; National Park and trail maintenance; and “other projects that are proposed by the eligible departments and determined appropriate by the Administration.”
