The "New" Great Depression Era Propaganda

On November 7th I observed the potential that politicians would resurrect Great Depression Era propaganda, slogans and logos as a way to perpetuate government spending and brand efforts to achieve social agendas.

Three months later the Obama administration has unveiled its “Stimulus” brand.

“The logo – with a three-leafed sprig for green jobs, a set of gears for infrastructure, and “recovery.gov” beside a field of stars – will be used to brand projects as well as raise the visibility of the White House’s economic initiatives and try to dramatize their impact.”

This is an excerpt from FDR’s playbook in defiance of the fact that Depression Era spending did nothing to solve the economic crisis. The logo smacks of political expediency and appears to be part of a concerted effort to take advantage of an economic crisis to expand government and enhance the influence of the Democratic Party.
