Huey Long's planned system to reform Capitalism never had a chance to get off the ground thanks to his Assassination in 1935, had he lived, Biographers tend to fell that he wasn't even going to run for President in 1936 so, any sort of system would have to wait, at least until after the 1940 Presidential Election.

The question I'm wondering though is, what happens if, under any set of circumstances, if the System of Caps on Profit and Guaranteed income had been able to be enacted? Is it bound to be an economic disaster as some say or will it actually have the ability to last for at least a period of time?
