After the market crash in 1929, the stock market did not climb back up until 1952. How's that for patience?

Fat cats were making money after the '29 crash. The stock market (just as it is now) was going gangbuster in the mid 30's, but only an idiot would declare that the Depression was over at the time. People were out of work in huge numbers, but at least they didn't suffer the insult to their intelligence of people waiving phoney government unemployment stats at them in order to convince them that they weren't really hungry. 6.1% my @$$. Try 9 or 10. Not Great Depression levels, but getting there.

Fat cats were making money after the '29 crash. True. And some were gettting very thin. Some were blowing heads off, too.

The stock market (just as it is now) was going gangbuster in the mid 30's, Yeh, the market fluctuates, that's deep.

but only an idiot would declare that the Depression was over at the time. Of course only an idiot would say that. Thank G-d nobody hear said that.

but at least they didn't suffer the insult to their intelligence of people waiving phoney government unemployment stats at them Aaaaah. It's a privolege to have you onboard --- you are the only one that knows the trith amids this massive coverup by the govermnent.

in order to convince them that they weren't really hungry. Wow, that's impressive! So you are telling us that the average American worker is hungry.

You adherence to the truth and reality is amazing. Maybe YOU should run for presidency? You certainly mastered multimedia.

6.1% my @$$. I don't think it'll fir there. You seem to have put your thinking ability in there already. Only the anger remains ourside.

Try 9 or 10. Not Great Depression levels, but getting there.
