You truly are a mental midget.

Hoover's continual meddling with fiscal and monetary policy (made possible by the very existence of the Fed and a worthless currency, set in motion by Wilson) exacerbated a recession into the Great Depression.

No shit. The Dem's can't stand hearing they caused the shitstorm, AND made it last WAY longer than it should have. Between Wilson and Roosevelt, we're lucky we still exist as a nation.

Togo and Hitler saved us.

Great Depression 1929Aug 1929 –
Mar 1933

This is from the chart in the link.

What most people think of as the great depression was a series of recessions.

Go look at the list of recessions provided

Shut up, huh? Just give it up. Even leftwingnut retards won't back you. Since they travel on this board in roving packs, THAT should tell you something. Even THEY think you're a fucknut retard.

Get a clue, huh?

You have no REAL facts. Leftwingnut propaganda aren't facts. They're lies. You're just lucky I know you're stupid enough to believe them and don't call you a liar.

The theories of unfettered markets have never suceded in history.

No one here has EVER produced and example where it worked as some claim it would.

Yet the long depression lasted longer than GD because of FDRs intervention and that is a fact to everyone but the partisans who prefer fantasy to facts.

You haven't provided anything showing how the government had No Involvement in the economy.

Tojo and Hitler saved us.

That's even a pop culture myth.

The war was a time of shortages, relatively depressed wages (made up for only by long hours), rationing and outright destruction of uncounted billions in industrial output.

It's also a little known economic history fact that one of America's deepest recessions occurred after the war, from all the GIs and weapons-of-war workers losing their jobs.....The real economic boom didn't come about until Eisenhower.

 

[Xenophon]

The Great depression was larger and ended sooner due to the interventions of FDR.

In every other country it was over by 1936.

In the USA it lasted till 1941.

Care to try again cupcake?

Did they have a dust bowl too?

Any other excuses you need to invent?

Wait ... didn't you say a few posts above it didn't last that long?

Make up your fucking mind, idjit. God, you are so predictable and stupid.

In context, I meant only from the Depression. The Dem-led US government assailed our civil rights at every level with rationing, halting the sale of rubber in the US, imprisoning immigrants from any country we were at war with ... etc.

Benjamin Franklin would have been appalled by both Lincoln and Roosevelt.

Why the 'Recovery' Is Taking So Long - Yahoo! News

The data show that the economy has stopped shrinking and started growing, which is good news no matter what. Economists broadly agree that the recession probably ended last summer, which means things ought to be getting better. Yet jobs are still scarce, the housing bust continues, consumers and businesses remain skittish, and many families are barely muddling through. "It's a recovery, yes," says Nariman Behravesh, chief economist for forecasting firm IHS Global Insight. "But it sure doesn't feel like it."


Part of the reason for the slow-motion recovery is the depth and nature of the recession that preceded it. A Federal Reserve study of the past three recessions found that employment, income, spending, stock prices, home values, and wealth all fell much more sharply during the 2007-2009 recession than after the downturns of 2001 or 1991. Loan delinquencies and bankruptcies, correspondingly, rose much faster. That leaves a lot of damage to repair.


The economy also takes longer to recover from recessions these days, like an aging patient who requires more time to bounce back from an injury in his 50s than he did in his 20s. It's not entirely clear why, but technology and globalization probably allow companies to wait longer before they start hiring American workers after a spate of downsizing, which in turns dampens confidence and spending. Here's how long it took for the unemployment rate to peak and start declining after the recessions that ended in the following years:

It's largely based on government spending. So while there is an increase in GDP, it's not necessarily the most fruitful of "recoveries".

Don't expect any significant increase in jobs this year. It's going to come back up a hell of a lot slower than it went down.

You truly are a mental midget.

Do you really think she could find all that Hoover had done to intervene in the economy throughout late '28 and all throughout '29, prior to October? Do you really think TM has a clue to what was attempted by Hoover regarding food prices to help the farmers? Would she even today understand the failure and repercussions of any of the attempts? Do you think any of those now calling for tariffs to protect manufacturing really understand what happened in the late 20's and early 30's?

No. No. No. And No.

Which of the attempts? 'All of them' isn't an answer. That 'long depression' you referred to, why did immigrants keep flooding into the US during these years? What was the cause and what were the reasons for recovery?

You weren't really expecting an intelligent answer from that ditz, were you?
