And credit Harding for letting the Depression of 1920 run its course without gov’t intervention making it worse.
Thus setting the stage for the economic boom of the Twenties.
There are around twenty-odd reasons for the boom period of the 1920s. I wouldn’t give Harding that much credit. Lowering the tax rates really helped a good bit. But the arrival of cars for the middle-class, the take-off of radio, rapid arrival of movies, vacations becoming a common thing for regular people, and the vast commercial awakening of sports in America all helped as well.
Harding is unfairly maligned, we would do very well to have a President as “bad” as he was.
