Wikianswers.com is using data pulled from a Russian researcher writing for Pravda in the year 2008. His analysis is flawed and wrong. It is the ONLY basis on the internet for the figure of 7-15 million dead in the US from starvation during the Great Depression. That is irresponsible behavior. Wikianswers.com is spreading a lie and so are you. Period.

Wikipedia.com thought it was a pack of lies and pulled it from their website. And you won't find it posted on Encarta.com either.

So far you've been unwilling or unable --- I say its the latter --- to post evidence that supports your contention, that 7-15 million Americans died during the Great Depression from starvation.

There are other sites...google is your friend....you want to believe the depression especially the period of 29 thru March 33 when Hoover was in office and nothing was done to help millions of average Americans without homes and jobs was a Walton rerun...have at it. It was a miserable time made more miserable by Hoover who completely mishandled the crisis...including fed policy. Roosevelt was elected four times.
