wikipedia the great depression, page-9

Not exactly, but if you read the contents and the actual linked page you may find it is a good read.

Incidently there are degrees of starvation around the world and no doubt the emerging markets in Asia changes demand for resources/agriculture "a little".

Nonetheless an interesting link I thought HC'ers may appreciate, for whatever value. I thought the references to credit/debt and the US federal reserve were interesting.
