	Ex America: The 50th Anniversary of The People’s Pottage reviewed by Ryan McMaken
		Anniversary Edition of Garet Garrett’s The People’s Pottage, it is possible to once again read the eloquent prose of one of the greatest intellectuals of an American right that had not yet made its peace with the dismantling of free and republican government in America.
		For Garet Garrett, such lies were all part of the revolutionary plan, thus it was essential that one appear committed to the rule of law in order to be able to subvert it.
		Garrett found numerous examples to illustrate the fearful presence of all of these properties and their destructive effects on the Constitution and the rule of law in general.

	Garet Garrett - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab-5.cs.princeton.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Garet Garrett (1878–1954) was an American journalist and author who was noted for his critiques of the New Deal and U.S. involvement in the Second World War.
		Garet Garrett was born in 1878 in Illinois.
		Garrett was highly critical of the Roosevelt Administration's moves toward intervention in the war then underway in Europe; he covered this topic in a series of editorials which were collected under the title Defend America First: The Antiwar Editorials of the Saturday Evening Post, 1939-1942, which was published in 2003.

	Garet Garrett Revived
		Garrett, who had been a financial journalist through the Panic of 1907, became the chief economics writer for the Post in 1922, when he denounced the financial bailout of Germany and the push by Britain and France to weasel out of their war debts.
		Garrett is describing a crowd in a New York City park, most of them unemployed and on relief, listening to a government band.
		In "Fear," Garrett, who calls himself the Old Reporter, is recalling a dinner in 1938 in Washington, DC, in which a utility man, some lawyers and a PR man were complaining about government domination of business and its ignoring of the Constitution.

	Liberty - Chronicler of the New Deal
		Garrett was no anti-labor "reactionary." Workers were not the only ones responsible for the regime in which it goes without saying that the state is responsible for giving you potatoes, and you are responsible only for eating them.
		Garrett describes an argument he had with an auto dealer in New Castle, Penn. Garrett maintained that there was an essential soundness in the attitude of the American people.
		Garrett can give you facts and figures; he can give you case studies by the mile; but he can also refute a counterargument by merely reminding you that "everybody knows better" than that (169).

	Defending America First (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Garrett had warned his readers that the president was neglecting America's natural defenses: "The first of these, more important in many ways than armament, is to keep our industrial machine at high key and in full production.
		Garet Garrett offered a different definition of that term: "They are defeatists who have doubted the power of America to stand alone in its own hemisphere, to defend itself against any agrressor or combination of aggressors, to make its own world impregnable."
		Garrett went back to writing, but there seemed to be little or no room for his views in newspapers or magazines.

	The Kirk Center
		Garrett denounced the actions Roosevelt took in 1940 that moved the United States away from neutrality to quietly siding with the Allies.
		Garrett’s opposition to such secretive policies was based in a belief in honest government and the protection of freedom.
		Garrett’s libertarian beliefs caused him to side with the Henry Fords of the world rather than the Becks, but either could be a threat to freedom through manipulation of the economic or political process.

		Garet Garrett, another critic of Roosevelt, understood that the United States was undergoing a revolution — of the kind Aristotle had called “revolution within the form."

	The Old Cause by Joseph Stromberg
		In Garrett's view, the two trends were inwardly linked as expressions of rampant statism in their respective spheres.
		Garrett's essay opens on an ominous note: "There are those who think they are holding the pass against a revolution that may be coming up the road.
		Garrett details how the New Deal accomplished its ends: Roosevelt's illegal "banking holiday," repudiation of what was left of the gold standard, and the abortive fascistic National Recovery Administration, whose goals were carried out by roundabout means once the Supreme Court came to understand who was in charge.

	RISE OF EMPIRE... THE BEST ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN IMPERIUM
		While Garrett's analysis of the Rooseveltian revolution is surely rooted in his Old Right libertarian opposition to redistributionism and support for laissez-faire, his insight into how the New Deal centralized, and, ultimately, militarized the economy, and much of American life, speaks to our present predicament with a certain eerie prescience.
		Garrett was a master of the opening paragraph, and I have cited his openers in the case of all three essays in part due to their sheer readability.
		A decade passed between the publication of "The Revolution Was" and "Rise of Empire," yet Garrett was still entranced by the vision of an elite that had seized power, effecting a revolution within the form until the American republic was transmuted, by some clandestine alchemy, into an empire.

	BUSH, GORE AND THE IMPERIAL STYLE... FROM A REPUBLIC TO AN EMPIRE
		Garrett saw that the transformation of the old Republic into an Empire in everything but name was a "revolution within the form." That is, the founding documents and traditions of the old Republic were kept around, for old time's sake, but they were either reinterpreted out of existence (the Constitution), or else completely ignored.
		Garrett addressed this question, and decided that you could, indeed, have an empire "with or without a constitution, even with the form of a republican constitution," and "also you may have Empire with or without an emperor." Colonies were not a prerequisite, either: look at Athens, which planted colonies as a tree drops its seeds.
		It was a precedent that appalled Garrett, and his fellow Old Rightists, but by that time they were old men on the knife-edge of mortality, living ghosts haunting the world of the living with their prophecies of usurpation and American decline.

	Book Review: Defend America First: The Antiwar Editorials of the Saturday Evening Post, 1939—1942 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Garrett was a strong opponent of Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal policies during the earlier years of the 1930s.
		What Garrett could not know at the time that he wrote these Saturday Evening Post editorials was the extent to which FDR had in fact given promises to Winston Churchill and entered into alliances in all but name with Churchill’s government for America’s entry into the war against Nazi Germany.
		What Garrett was most deeply concerned about in these editorials from 1940 and 1941 and in his writings after the Second World War was that FDR’s actions were creating an imperial presidency, outside the restraint of the Congress and beyond the control of the American citizenry and their wishes as a free people.

		Economic journalist Garet Garrett (1878-1953) was one of the most brilliant and steadfast members of the pre-Cold War Old Right.
		Garrett ably captured the demoralization and fear that gripped America in the grim winter of 1932-1933.
		Traditionally, Garrett observed, Americans regarded the struggle between capital and labor as a "free economic conflict" in which the public and the federal government should stay neutral.

	The Credit Delusion
		Garrett writes, "when creditors fail to present themselves faster than old creditors demand to be paid off, the bubble bursts." This seems to be where we are now.
		Garrett wrote, "then you go to jail, like Ponzi, or just commit suicide like Ivar Kruegar." Except our monetary system is so infected, its malaise so advanced, only a radical makeover can prevent the endless vicious cycle of boom and bust.
		Garrett, in speaking of the ancient goldbeater’s art, writes that "between two pieces of fine leather made from the intestines of an ox it may be beaten to the impalpable thickness of 1/300,000th part of an inch, so that one troy grain may be made to cover 56 square inches."

		Enthusiastic applause from Justin Raimondo at the 50th-anniversary re-issue of a book by Garet Garrett critiquing the transformation of the United States from a constitutional republic to an imperial state.
		-- Garet Garrett (1878-1954) was a journalist whose career culminated at the Saturday Evening Post ("a particular haven for mourners of the past," as William Manchester noted in The Glory and the Dream), and who was known as an eloquent opponent to U.S. involvement in World War II....

	An American Empire! If You Want It instead Of Freedom
		Out of the ashes of the Second World War, Garrett argued, the United States had taken on the status and position of a global policeman responsible for the "the peace of the world." To fulfill this task, all other matters become of secondary importance.
		As Garrett explained it, "From the point of view of Empire the one fact common to all satellites is that their security is deemed vital to the security of the Empire....
		For most of the 50 years since Garrett outlined what he considered the characteristics of the emerging American Empire, most political and foreign policy analysts have denied that America was or was pursuing an empire.

	A bubble that broke the world
		According to Garrett, the general shape of this universal delusion may be indicated by three of its familiar features.
		Garrett lays the principle blame for the unprecedented expansion of credit in the 1920s with World War I. Initially, the war debt was only internal and represented debt that the U.S. owed to herself.
		Garrett concludes, "That debt need never be paid, that it may be infinitely postponed, that a creditor nation may pay itself by progressively increasing the debts of its debtors—such was the logic of this credit delusion."

		Old Right libertarian Garet Garrett (1878-1954) practiced journalism as it's practiced too rarely these days -- weaving an intimate knowledge of present affairs, the past that paved the way, and the ethical and economic principles that illuminate these.
		Garrett thus illustrates that there is only one way to learn self-reliance...
		Ramsey notes that although much that was bad in the New Deal has "washed away," Garrett reminds us that "we didn't have to accept those things" which did become absorbed into the American system.

	Garet Garrett's American Story
		Garrett wrote novels in his youth, short stories and serials for the old Saturday Evening Post – he later became the magazine’s chief editorial writer – and his flair for the dramatic, the unexpected turn of a phrase, embellishes his later essays and nonfiction books.
		In his wonderfully allusive style, Garrett opens the first chapter, titled “The World in Europe’s Belly”: “First the roundness of the earth had to be imagined.
		Both American nationalists and “anti-government” decentralists of the contemporary Right will be delighted by Garrett’s account of the tasks facing the victorious American revolutionaries: “The immediate business was to create a national government; and many people demanding to know why that was necessary at all.

		Not only is The Driver a novel of high finance and Wall Street methods, it also paints a portrait of an efficacious and visionary man who uses reason to focus his enthusiasm on reality in his efforts to attain his goals.
		For example, in 1894, populists pressured Congress to enact a bi-metallic system of money by declaring that gold and silver are equal in dollar value and that gold and silver dollars be interchangeable.
		It is through the eyes of this reporter-narrator that readers understand the career, struggles, and evolution of a little-known Wall Street speculator and risk-taker to king of Wall Street and to a potential economic dictator of the United States.

		This collection of essays by the unjustly forgotten Garrett perfectly complements his other, longer essays in "The People's Pottage." His broadsides on Franklin Roosevelt's policies and his laments for a republican (little "r") America turning imperialistic will make you see American history between the two great wars in a new light.
		This man was an editorial writer for the Saturday Evening Post (which editorials make up most of this book under review) for years and didn't let the idiocies and tyrannies of his day pass unnoticed.
		Unlike the shrill accusations against Bush today, Garrett only points to established facts, and not second guessing about whether there may have been intelligence failures.
