Please post sources [for the notion that adherence to the gold standard worsened the Great Depression]. This is new to me.
Gladly. One good book for general reading is Golden Fetters : The Gold Standard and the Great Depression, 1919-1939. The praise for it lends support to my claim that this is mainstream thinking. You can also find plenty of scholarly works written over the last 50 years concluding that the gold standard worsened the Great Depression.

Keep laughing, savedbygrace.
