While this documentary is not based soley on the great depression it does lay out how/why it happened along with the running battle over who controls the money supply throughout history. Long, but worth every moment if you have the time.

Read the book, the Worst Hard Time by Egan. I listened to it free on Libby app from public library. It explains how the dust bowl was man made and the government largely complicit.

My grandparents also hated him. When FDR died, my grandfather went out onto the street and yelled “The sonofabitch is dead”.

Read “The Forgotten Man” by Amity Schlaes. The definitive history of the Depression exposing FDR’s perfidy and failures.
To: KierkegaardMAN
Yup. The Depression was caused by the banks/federal reserve and then used to instill Socialism/Marxism on America.

FDR is the patron saint of progressives.
The propaganda of the “New Deal” is the ideological foundation of every leftist, big-government social-engineering scheme we have now

He was a strong conservative Republican when it really meant something.
Born in 1884, he graduated from the University of Colorado Law School in 1903.
He was in the fight to prevent FDR from “Packing” the Supreme Court.

Talk to your parents or grand parents. They lived it. I heard all about it from my parents and my friends parents. It really sucked.
