So they faked the data from the 1800s, to help Wilson and FDR? LOL!
You're funny.
LOL What contractions? Show me a chart that shows these.
They got their start in 1934. Why wouldn't they help FDR and the Democratic Party's long support of the Federal Reserve and its sisters the League of Nations and the UN? You admitted hey lied for Obama, they wouldn't lie for Democrats in the 1930s?
Show me a chart that shows this "long depression" you speak of, all I see is gain from 1873 to 1896.
You can't do it, can you? LOL Everything you've argued for, made a fool of yourself for, in front of everybody here, for years here, has been based on lies, hasn't it?
The people that pushed this stuff in the first decade of the 1900s and then during FDR were just as scummy and just as big of liars as the people that support Obama today. You've been duped.
How does lying about the 1800s help the Dems in the 1930s?
The same NBER you admitted are liars! LOL
Let's see a chart. Your contractions are either imaginary or statistical static.
The Federal Reserve began in 1913, the Great Depression, the worst economic disaster to ever hit the nation, came shortly after the Fed after it was promised the Fed would get rid of downturns, so we need to throw some "officials" out there to say, yeah, things are bad bow, but they were much worse before the Fed, trust us, we can't prove it with charts, just trust us. LOL
Typical FDR, socialist scumbag liar all the way, his wife too.
What does that have to do with the 1800s?
Your contractions are either imaginary or statistical static.
Right. The long depression, imaginary. It's so clear now. LOL!
I know, barely 16 years after they were created, the Fed screwed up by tightening the money supply, instead of loosening. Milton Friedman talked all about it in a YouTube video that I posted for you.
He says, very clearly, that the government, including the Fed, really boned things up.
Democrat Wilson used lies about the 1800s to push the Federal Reserve on us. It's like Obama saying how bad Reaganomics is, we have to move to socialism. When they want to push socialism, they lie about the non-socialist past. Obama is president in 2009 and lies about the 1980s, Wilson was president in 1909 and lied about the 1880s. Then FDR shoves the NBER down our throat to make those lies official to ward off the people blaming the Federal Reserve for the Great Depression.
Right. The long depression, imaginary. It's so clear now. LOL!
It's clear you have no chart that proves there was any "long depression" between 1873 and 1896.
That must be it. Because no one remembered the constant downturns.
Then FDR shoves the NBER down our throat to make those lies official to ward off the people blaming the Federal Reserve for the Great Depression.
But it was the Fed's fault. How do you feel the NBER shields the Fed in any way?

They got away with it then the way they get away with it now, exaggeration and repetition.

With their lies about "long depressions" and such, trying to make people believe it was worse before, like the media does today about supply-side economics. The GDP per person chart shows no long depression in the period the NBER claims, in fact the first eight years were a boom. What does Obama do today when there is bad economic news, blames Reagan and Bush, and then the media backs him and he and his party continue to win elections, and we continue to lose freedoms because of that. Reality doesn't matter to the low informed, what matters is what's repeated in their head every day, and Obama and the media know it and that's why they do it. They wouldn't do it if it didn't work. We know the economy was ten times better under Reagan and under Bush before the Dems took over Congress in '06, but all the low information voters either don't know it or have forgotten it, and there will always be more of them than there are of us. Staying informed is hard work, and too many people like the easy road of ignorant bliss.
Right here.
That's not a chart, that's a meaningless table. If you broke economic activity down to the individual transaction, about every other transaction would be a contraction. When you have that many numbers they're playing games with the stats and it's just statistical noise, meaningless. A long term chart is what shows the truth and the GDP chart in my earlier post shows a very steady climb for the 45 years right before the FED. Draw a straight line from the beginning point of the chart line to the end point of the chart line and the actual line does not deviate from the straight line much at all.
The NBER are liars, appointed by FDR originally, to dupe the people.
So you’ve never seen any references about the long depression that didn’t come from the NBER? Just because they disprove your claim doesn’t mean they’re lying.

Correction from the boom of 1873 to 1880.
If everyone has been quoting the NBER, then what does it matter.
It didn't affect GDP. Industries evolve, resources get allocated differently.
Try again.
Estimated declines in United States manufacturing output in selected sectors (1872–1876)[26] Industry % decline in output Durable goods 30% Iron and steel 45% Construction 30% Overall 10% From the source of your graph.
Overall, 10% decline in output.
And this.
In the US, from 1873–1879, 18,000 businesses went bankrupt, including hundreds of banks, and ten states went bankrupt
