Please explain the years of the charts tragectory before the 1943 year?
You see the unemployment was on a downward spiral during the years that ND was in place and when FDR backed off in 1937 the economy started to crash again UNTIL FDR reupp;ed his efforts and then BOOM back down.
I see your probelm TM...
You believe that creating government paid jobs directly correlates to recovery.
It doesn't. It only eases the pain until thr recovery takes place.
So the infrastructure that the country benifited from for decades after the GD mean nothing?
They are very much part of the economic picture even to today.
You are so emotionally invested in your failed thoeries that you deny the exsistance of the commerce that benifited from all these improvements right into todays economy.
It is quite easy to come across as the winner in a debate when you change the premise of the debate.
You were arguing the theory that the ND was the primary cause of the recovery. And your basis was a chart showing how the ND decreased unemployment.
Of course it decreased unempoloyment. It created jobs to build roads and bridges. But in no way does that chart show that it caused the recovery. And many such as myself, using comparable history as the basis for our thinking, believe that the ND DID decrease unemployment but in no way was responsible for the recovery as anytime government infusion of cash was implemented, the recessions recovered, but always took longer to recover.
i.e....
1) the recession/depression we are talking about
2) the lost decade of Japan
3) the recession we are currently experiencing.
Stimuli have proven to ease the pain of the citizens during a recession, but lengthened the time of recovery.
And my issue with this recession is that we, the people dedcided to put the burden of the recession on our children by borrowing money from them so we can ease our own suffering.
It is selfish on our part and we should be ashamed of ourselves.
