the asx in 1929 ... the real story, page-20

worth reading as much as possible about the great depression

probably one of the most relevant topics around

ben bernanke did his Phd on it didn't he?

good pt about the second world war

one thing is that the longer that countries stayed with the gold standard the longer they stayed in recession

benankie says we will be on the way to recovery by the end of the year

he would say that

one thing is certain the government is spending, running deficits and guaranteeing bank accounts

three things that they didn't do back in 1929

assuming government action works we could be on the mend.
