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.

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

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.

The victors write the history.

It took me a concerted effort to finally locate a book about the real story behind how we mobilized from the depression to the Arsenal of Democracy. Surprise. Turns out it was not because of the patriotic American Worker but in spite of him. It was done by a manufacturing genius named William Knudsen and the leaders of industry in the US. Knudsen was quietly hired by FDR in early ‘41 and he was able to lay the ground work for turning on the industrial might of the US to war production. When he finished FDR cut him off at the knees and replaced him with a New Deal plant to get all the credit. It took decades for the truth to come out.

It took war production to end the Depression in the US. Giverment spending did hot do it so well. The truth is in plain sight of the little known truth that much of the rest of the world, UK, had recovered by sound fiscal policy of tightening the purse strings and letting economic crisis run its course. This is why the UK were able to respond to the start of the war, they were just too small and without resources to carry the day.

When you find the book that tells the truth let us know.
