s It's 100%, unalloyd, unadulterated BOVINE EXCREMENT! The entire concept is built on one teensy tiny, almost inconsequential bit...sans any actual, factual, historical knowledge of any kind at all!
No mention of what the Treaty of Versailles did to 1/2 of the European nations, the decimation of the populations of Europe, due to WW I and what THAT did to factories, the leftward movements in thinking in many of those nations, the strikes, and war reparations, and that's just what was going on on the other side of the Atlantic!
And thanks to J.P. Morgan and his compatriots, they could have save the market...but that POS Joe Kennedy and his consortium did corrupt, kind of illegal stuff to keep depressing the markets! And one thing led to another, which kept making things here worse after the Crash!
Then there were the weather conditions!
These historical facts are out there for everyone to know!
I mentioned that some people jumped out of windows. You took it a lot further.
Don’t disagree with your historical facts. But, that wasn’t the main point of my comment. It was that the merely rich suffered in the Great Depression and became poor. Some of those you are talking about .. Morgan and Kennedy... were not the merely rich, but the super-super-rich, who could mold events and benefit from them.
