BH! "You have no idea how much I've read and understand about the Great Depression."
I'm not up to speed with the Great Depression, not even sure why they called it great, Heinous Depression would be a better term.
Anyway from what I have read and try to understand the difference this time is the goverments reaction, they are moving alot quicker and throwing far greater amounts of money relative to the GDP at the problem. Also todays economies around the world are much stronger because the goverments contribute a much higher percentage to the GPD.
So I am a optomist and believe we are near the bottom.
