My great grandmother survived this period, a widow with 3 little kids, sewing and embroidering dresses for those who could afford it. She eventually opened her own little shop and got to send her kids to university. Then my grandfather (the eldest) had to join the army during WW2 and survived that too. The stories they told... Strong woman. Strong man. Tough genes.😆
The one thing this video teaches me is, we are always only one generation away from total economic collapse, because of the stupidity, shortsightedness or greed of those in power at the time. It's never about the long term goal of what's best for everyone one hundred years down the road, only the short term of their lifetime to keep them in political power at most.

People dont realize there was a push for fascism around a lot of the world, including the United States, Britain, and other parts of Europe. Though most governments of the nations did not support it, there were members of parliament/congress who did.
Push for Communism too. Matter of fact, with Woodrow Wilson being the first Progressive President, his policies directly led to the causes of the depression.
@@johnschultz8906 unfortunately? It seems like it had over 100 years and killed 100’s of millions of people. I think the unfortunate part is that it wasn’t completely snuffed out as I can tell there are still dim flickers of this failed belief systems.
@@MelissaR784 Woodrow wilson was not the first progressive president Teddy was. And Woodrow Wilson was not remotely a communist and had more in common with modern day democrats than he did presidents like Teddy FDR or even Truman and Eisenhower
I used to think everybody went broke during the Great Depression and other major crashes but they didn’t… Some made millions, I also thought everybody went out of business during these times but they didn’t, some went into business, there's always depression/recession for some people and there's always a good time for others, it's all about perspective.
most of these strategies and loopholes are better managed by experts and pros in the market, the average Investor on the other hand are left to suffer during a crash.
The issue is people always have the “I’ll have to do it myself mentality” Unapologetically, that’s why the get heavily affected during a crash and coupled with the fact we’ve had the longest bullrun ever in the American history, most folks aren’t equipped to manaqe this crash and it’s impending opportunltles well enough, so it only makes sense to seek proper guidance during these times, that’s what lnvestment-advlsers are for, been using one ever since the pandemc 2020 and I’ve been barely affected by crash, I have $850k in profit sitting in my portfolio and I’m unbothered about the market outcomes.
Definitely! All of this happened in less than a year after Catherine Morrison Evans told me what to do. I started with less than $100,000, and now I'm about 17,000 short of having a quarter million dollars.
My parents were born in 1916 and 1919. They adopted me at birth in 1963. They threw nothing away, grew and canned or froze their own food. Fruit, vegetables, beef, chicken and pork. What they couldn't or didn't grow was bought at The Farmers Market or in bulk. My father built his own business. Sold that to "retire" on the farm. Some retirement. Work never ended on the farm. But I had a great life. And so did they. My dad died at 91. And the VA killed him. He WAS gonna live to 100+. Friggin Drs.
My grandparents did as well. We got to hear many stories of struggle and survival. It's something that stayed with them throughout their entire lives. And they certainly knew how to stretch a dollar that's for sure. My grandma had a saying "Keep track of your pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves."
What this Generation lived through and had to deal with is UNREAL. I have so much respect for the people and offspring who lived through this era. I find them to be an inspiration. I know their numbers are dwindling but I am still in awe of them.
I was lucky enough who had Grandparents who lived through the Great Depression . I have always thought that they have been left out of the story and it became more about the children, my parents the " Greatest Generation". Both my Grandparents worked various jobs to keep food cloths and a roof over their families heads. Veterans of the trenches of WW1 they new the horror of war and how to carry on.
Few know that in the US 6 million died from starvation during the great depression the Federal reserve drove financial collapse just the opposite of the reason they were founded.
Even though I was born in 1987 my grandparents grew up in the depression. One of my grandmother's was in the dust bowl. She kept everything. When she died we found bags of sugar along with many other items she hoarded.
My Grandpa and his four brothers were all sent to other farmers to live as farm laborers until they were adults. My Grandpa and the oldest took city jobs when they turned 18, Two of the middle boys were willed the farm they worked on because the owner had no family. The other middle boy went to Nevada and worked building the Hoover Dam. My Great-Grandparents were able to keep their farm near Tontogany, Ohio by running it with the four girls who remained at home. Lots of families ended up scattered around the US this way. My Grandpa and his siblings never complained about how it ended up for them. They all just charged forward with their lives. One brother was killed in WW2 and the other four all lived into their late 80's or 90's as happy people.
Similar thing happened to my grandma. She was sent at a young age to live at some relatives’ house to live 50 miles away. She worked for them until she was old enough to get married and live on her own. She lost touch with most her family during that time. I guess it was pretty traumatic for her. She was young and surrounded by brothers and sisters at her home and then suddenly she’s sent off by herself to work and live somewhere else.
@sonnick"As lucky"? You are an idiot. 1930 rural America didn't have FDR's soup lines or today's food stamps. They didn't have $1200 stimulus checks or $600 unemployment. They worked or they starved. Trump has done more for the US citizen this year than FDR did during the entire Great Depression. Go back to playing your video game in your Mommy's basement.
Bubba Fudpucker my grandparents were treated like second hand filthy no rights having animals so yes your families were lucky and oh my great grandparents and grandparents didn’t complain but I am and won’t stop
Bubba Fudpucker speak for white Anglo Saxon lol please be clear because my grandparents... hey bubba your grandparents know the story I hope they are resting in peace right one would only hope heaven has a place for the evil
My grandparents lived during the Great Depression, my grandpa always figured out ways to make money stretch. Even today I like leftovers, and my mom tries not to waste food, with v-19 I've learned how to make recipes, and t r y new desserts, and saving back alot for 'next time'.
If you’re looking for new recipes or want to learn how to garden, sew and live a sustainable lifestyle, I make videos! Everything is homemade and delicious. Hope to see you there🙂 have a great day!
People think we are all strange when we say we eat left-overs, don't waste money on frivolous things. But all in all, we are the same people who will survive when SHTF comes around again. I am proud to say that I didn't grow up during the Depression, but I feel like I know a lot more than some who didn't either, but also refuses to try to conserve money for a rainy day.
@Brian Laundry we did by being in your European comic opera called war, before and after we had 0 foreign policy until WW2 and we didn't start that comedy show either.
@@matthewestrada407 If we had no foreign policy how did the Spanish American War happen? How is allying ourselves with France against England an absence of foreign policy? True, we were busy cleaning up after ourselves during the leadup to the Civil War, the war itself, and the Reconstruction era, but it is hardly accurate to say we had no foreign policy just because we supported isolationism (which is, itself, a foreign policy) for a short period. 🙄
@@matthewestrada407 absolutely wrong, the annexation of Haiti, the Phillipines, Wake, and Guam, as well as Pacific Fleet build up in Indo-Pacific doesnt count as Foreign Policy? bruh
@@rachelk4805 Truthfully, the United States did not have very bad relations with Spain before the outbreak of the Spanish American War. In fact, the United States just blew up one of their own ships and than blamed Spain so they would have a justification to conquer their territories.
The World War did solve the last depression, but unfortunately with ICBMs and H-Bombs WW3 will have no winner. China, EU, America and Russia have issues but suicide is not one of them.

My great grandma logan was born into the depression she was born in 1921 and died two years ago at 98. I always loved hearing hear stories about it and I’d depended on what her dad Hunted or fished if they ate. She was a very strong god fearing woman to have grown up during that bad time
It's refreshing to watch a documentary on this subject, that endeavors to move outside the ruts traveled by its predecessors. Most enjoyable. Thank you for posting!
The root causes of the depression are not discussed. Banks extending credit, while pulling dollars from circulation is huge. All competition to the large banks were destroyed, through financial terrorism.
We need to make sure that this time around we turn out frustrations on the people who are really responsible for our economic woes, the billionaire elites.
We're absolutely being played towards another round of WW. And so far, were being driven towards the same ends... I hope We the People can aim correctly for once..cause the last 2 times we ended up aiming at each other FOR the wealthy.
Unfortunately history seems to repeat itself we as a species don't seem to be smart enough to learn from our mistakes 😒 war is always about old men fighting and young men dieing I say let the old men go and die for their own fight and never let us repeat the same stupidity that got us there just my opinion
My dad would have been 102, my mom would be 93 and I am 58. My dad was 44 and I was 1when I was adopted. When I was very young I wanted to take my after dinner oreos( 2) outside with me so I could hurry up and get to my friends. My dad told that it wasn't nice to eat in front of other because, "you don't know the last time they ate.Bring enough to share or eat your cookies inside." He told me it was a real treat when the family had bacon grease sandwiches. My mom told me her and her sister would chew fresh tar because it tasted like black licorice.She said didn't have all the bad stuff in it back then.
Hi Ken ..my Dad would be 105 he was born in 1918 ...I'm 59 I was an unplanned child Pop was 44 when I was born. Dad followed " The Fruit Trail" from Indio to Olivehurst CA living in tents following the harvest during the Great Depression I'm replying to your comment because we had the same experience with Dads old enough to be our grandparents....I have a half sister 20 years older than me ...I loved just sitting and talking with Pop...He was an Island Hopper Combat engineer Amphibious WWII heavy drinker till I was 19-20 always talk to himself about the war when he was drunk so when he sobered up we'd sit and talk for hours in our driveway...I could ask him anything about anything! Sure miss ya POP....nice talking to you Ken.... PFC EUGENE H DOG UNDERWOOD 1918-1997
Really enjoyed this video. I feel like my soul belongs in a different time. I feel so connected to history. I'd love to be able to go back to school and study history. But, I feel like time is not my friend, as I am getting older and find myself with less time to spare.
I just watch this and can't help to think about my grandmother. She was born in 1918 and would have been 12 when the Depression began. I see the clips of the small children and think how brave and strong she must have been to survive something so horrible.
My grandparents live through the Depression they had a potato Farm and they helped their neighbors. My Dad said if the Government won't help the people with higher wages better living then we are bound to have another Great Depression again. He said the people are the ones that keep America working. Not the Rich; he just passed away in 2020
@SpecialOpsSniperUSArmy #117,#119th Inf Div First of all, I want to thank you for Your Service to the United States. My late Father, My Uncle (his Brother who's still alive), and my late Step-Father were in the United States Air Force and all Vietnam War Veterans. I have very deep appreciation for our Men and Women in Uniform. Secondly, it isn't just the Democrats that have trashed our Country. RINO Republicans are equally as guilty for the state of affairs that we're all suffering now. My Best to You and Your Family. Raymond
@SpecialOpsSniperUSArmy #117,#119th Inf Div I recently heard of this, and found it very disturbing. I don't spend too much time researching it, I'm focusing on personal food production with methods that don't require equipment. As well as harvest and preservation techniques for veg and meat, learning about herbal medicine (study backed), and general skills lost to time. We just have the mortgage to pay off. I can't stop the coming storm, but I can try to prepare for it.
@SpecialOpsSniperUSArmy #117,#119th Inf Div We differ in our religious beliefs, and I like in ground planting for the minerals, but I agree in building a long term pantry, 2nd amendment rights and responsibilities. Unfortunately we lost our things in a lake on fishing trip. Really sucked. Oh, and learning wild edibles or medicinal plants isn't so fruity. I'd like to know what I can eat and use if I have crop failures. The list gets longer the more I research. In WW2, American soldiers would bring Yarrow (a common weed) with them to stop bleeding. It's a fast acting styptic, and I've personally used it a lot. Good stuff.
@@NS-pf2zc I agree with you, "Natasha". A very good example was with AntiFa and "Black Lives Matter" when they took over that six block area of Seattle, Washington. They attempt to grow food by putting down a large mat of cardboard, layering it with an inch of soil, and planted vegetable seedlings in it. It was hilarious seeing the photos online. They expected the vegetables to be magically fully grown and ready for picking. I never had such a great laugh in my life. 🤪
The tax on salt was only part of the problem. The British were trying to block local production of salt, which could be picked up for free at the sea shore, and force the locals to buy salt imported from England.
This is what we will end up with in the USA if things keep moving as they are. Even now you can see a shift towards making people more reliant on the government to care for them and keeping people from being self sustainable.
@razorback9374 COMMUNISM wohoo scary monsters. A state that spends the peoples tax money looking after all the people not to just the corrupt GOP. Your life and that of everyone around you will get better whe Trump and DE Santis are in jail.You have been warned.
HAPPY VETERANS DAYS To the Men and Women of our USA Arm Forces. Thank you to our Veterans who have served our country the USA and our Community's. Your sacrifice, loyalty, dedication has not gone unnoticed. We thank you and we saluted you, and we love each of you. For those who have lost their lives, we say thank you for your services for making the alternate sacrifice. Your memory will always be in our hearts and minds, gone but not forgotten. Remember freedom isn't free and don't things in our lives and the peoples that is surrounding us for granted. God bless America and may God bless your family abundantly. 🙏❤👍
It's no wonder they are trying to rewrite history. They don't want anyone to know where they got the playbook. So many things that happened then sound so familiar today. Will we ever learn from history? :(
Yea we have lived through a depression ourselves! Or a severe resection not sure if we reached the depression point but it was pretty bad out here jobs was no where and they knew you could get you didn’t want! Now jobs are like every where and we have a shortage of labor! Who seen that coming!
My grandma was born 1919. Her mother died during childbirth. She had a big brother that was 2 years old. Their father adopted them out to two different neighbors. They were fed housed and treated fairly and properly. The old system worked better than this new one. She lived to be a 100 years old and taught me so much. Philadelphia USA
Probably irrelevant, but the Queen was alive then. Her parents were the Duck and Duchess of York, and they had allowed their young daughters to be filmed and photographed. She still might have memories of the interwar period.
Our civilisation survived the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918-20. That pandemic killed 50-100M people worldwide and was no respecter of youth. Heaps of people in the prime of life died. Entire families with children died. The Great Depression was very severe in rural America, where families were reduced to growing their own food other than a bit of flour and sugar. If the farm was mortgaged, the mortgagor often defaulted and lost his farm. What little money was earned, was reserved to pay property taxes. (State and local governments as a whole ran modest surpluses during the 1930s.) Few rural households had electric power or telephone service. The stock market crash of October 1929 was a symptom of very troubled economic conditions, and not a cause of those troubles. For starters, stock ownership was not all that common, and most American businesses were proprietorships and partnerships. In 1929, most Americans households were small farmers or shopkeepers. Trust funds for widows and orphans, and the endowments of nonprofits, were forbidden by law from owning stocks. The summer of 1930 was very hot and dry, which led to widespread crop failure and the inability to service farm mortgages. The two worst months in American stock market history, a history that begins in January 31, 1871, when only 35 stocks were traded, were the: * 34% decline in September 1931, when the Fed raised the discount rate from 4.5% to 6%, triggering 4-5 thousand bank failures, a decline in bank deposits of 30%, and a near total cessation of bank lending. During the winter of 1932-33, the ability of the American economy to survive this disaster was very much in doubt. Savings & loans survived this crisis by opting to ban withdrawals from passbook accounts. The cumulative decline from August 1931 to June 1932, was 100% (a negative value this large is possible because of continuous compounding); * 25% decline in May 1940, when the Third Reich quickly conquered France, Belgium and Luxembourg. BTW, between February 1937 and April 1942, the American stock market declined 51% even though real GDP increased 46%. The market was mistakenly pessimistic about the outcome of the imminent WW2. During the first week of May, the USA fought and more or less won the Battle of Coral Sea. A month later, the US Navy won a huge and decisive victory over Japan at the Battle of Midway, starting a market rise that lasted until yearend 1945.
My grandpa and grandma grew up during the depression she said in Chicago during the summer they would do dandelion salad to try and survive and my grandpa said in Nebraska you'd be lucky to hunt a mouse or bird it was pretty rough they both never thought they went without though it was more extreme rationing especially for my grandpa because he grew up on a farm rip grandma I love you

This is why all of us need to learn how to grow food still. Just because we have grocery stores doesn’t mean we need to lose are knowledge on how to grow our own food. That’s a huge reason Russia had famines they forgot how to farm and plus the communist killed all the farmers in the gulags. Read autobiography Forgive Me Natasha to see for your self what can happen to us.
The Russians took all the farmers crops at the end of harvest. Their was no time for a 2nd personal crop before winter. That's why they starved even knowing how to grow food. Hiding food was a death sentence.
Alfonso 13 was probably happy to abandon the monarchy. He was only 12 when Spain lost what was left of their empire to the United States. Our Royal Amigo seems to have been happy to be out of it....
Russia's still paying for those T-34s...the US for the Shermans...Germany for the Tigers...Great Britain for the battle cruisers...Japan for the aircraft carriers... War debt is never really written off, except by bureaucrats. The People pay for generations to come. I read an old book about WW1 years ago. In the introduction the author stated how many X Dollars the US was still (officially) in debt for... _the Civil War_ .
@Luc Faas No, dangit. I want to say that it was from the US Army Historical Series, but have had no luck tracking down that info. Been bugging me for decades. The reason I remember it is because I was astonished that there was still debt from 50 years earlier. From what I remember it wasn't a huge amount.

The sense of 'community' is now gone. Federal relief was then absent, but a charitable and God-fearing homogeneous culture existed. People gave and helped one another in those days. Society is now completely different; A Great Depression today in 2021 would be thoroughly disastrous. Society would collapse.
Come on..don't be so negative.. we now know more on how to cultivate certain things...people get together usually when there's a disaster of some sort...and don't be God fearing kind...I've never understood that one..lol
Don't over rate private charity. As FDR assumed office, he got constant reports on how the major charity organizations were running out of funds. Similarly the local and state governments either couldn't or wouldn't provide the needed help. Nothing wrong in neighbors helping neighbors, but don't say it was sufficient then or now. This viewpoint tends to correlate to ones own income and assets.

The people that lived through the depression were as my father would have said, "Tough as nails." He was born in 1907. Stay safe and GOD bless.
My parents grew up during the Great Depression. It's part of who I am even though I wasn't around until decades later.
Even though I was born in 1987 my grandparents grew up in the depression. One of my grandmother's was in the dust bowl. She kept everything. When she died we found bags of sugar along with many other items she hoarded.
My Grandpa and his four brothers were all sent to other farmers to live as farm laborers until they were adults. My Grandpa and the oldest took city jobs when they turned 18, Two of the middle boys were willed the farm they worked on because the owner had no family. The other middle boy went to Nevada and worked building the Hoover Dam.
My Great-Grandparents were able to keep their farm near Tontogany, Ohio by running it with the four girls who remained at home. Lots of families ended up scattered around the US this way. My Grandpa and his siblings never complained about how it ended up for them. They all just charged forward with their lives. One brother was killed in WW2 and the other four all lived into their late 80's or 90's as happy people.
Similar thing happened to my grandma. She was sent at a young age to live at some relatives’ house to live 50 miles away. She worked for them until she was old enough to get married and live on her own. She lost touch with most her family during that time. I guess it was pretty traumatic for her. She was young and surrounded by brothers and sisters at her home and then suddenly she’s sent off by herself to work and live somewhere else.
@sonnick"As lucky"? You are an idiot. 1930 rural America didn't have FDR's soup lines or today's food stamps. They didn't have $1200 stimulus checks or $600 unemployment. They worked or they starved. Trump has done more for the US citizen this year than FDR did during the entire Great Depression. Go back to playing your video game in your Mommy's basement.
Bubba Fudpucker my grandparents were treated like second hand filthy no rights having animals so yes your families were lucky and oh my great grandparents and grandparents didn’t complain but I am and won’t stop
Bubba Fudpucker speak for white Anglo Saxon lol please be clear because my grandparents... hey bubba your grandparents know the story I hope they are resting in peace right one would only hope heaven has a place for the evil

My grandparents lived during the Great Depression, my grandpa always figured out ways to make money stretch.

@@Jbaron9834 You people always got to blame the Jews for everything. Shame on you.
People think we are all strange when we say we eat left-overs, don't waste money on frivolous things. But all in all, we are the same people who will survive when SHTF comes around again. I am proud to say that I didn't grow up during the Depression, but I feel like I know a lot more than some who didn't either, but also refuses to try to conserve money for a rainy day.
My grandparents lived through the Great Depression too. The original reduce, reuse, and recycle crew. I learned so much from them.
So refreshing to see a doc that shows what happened in the world not just the USA
@Brian Laundry we did by being in your European comic opera called war, before and after we had 0 foreign policy until WW2 and we didn't start that comedy show either.
@@matthewestrada407 If we had no foreign policy how did the Spanish American War happen? How is allying ourselves with France against England an absence of foreign policy? True, we were busy cleaning up after ourselves during the leadup to the Civil War, the war itself, and the Reconstruction era, but it is hardly accurate to say we had no foreign policy just because we supported isolationism (which is, itself, a foreign policy) for a short period. 🙄
Its interesting that usually what happens in the USA dictates what happens to other countries.
@@matthewestrada407 absolutely wrong, the annexation of Haiti, the Phillipines, Wake, and Guam, as well as Pacific Fleet build up in Indo-Pacific doesnt count as Foreign Policy? bruh
@@rachelk4805 Truthfully, the United States did not have very bad relations with Spain before the outbreak of the Spanish American War. In fact, the United States just blew up one of their own ships and than blamed Spain so they would have a justification to conquer their territories.

There is too much distraction and people living in dream worlds. The entertainment business and video games/ virtual are two examples.
My great grandma logan was born into the depression she was born in 1921 and died two years ago at 98. I always loved hearing hear stories about it and I’d depended on what her dad Hunted or fished if they ate. She was a very strong god fearing woman to have grown up during that bad time
Bad times born strong mans and good times born weak mans....history repeats itself
What a precious grandma you have.
A bad time and a good God
Now, I can't believe they're doing a sequel!
The thought and inspiration of those who lost their life and made an Impact on and for their country is truly significant.
It's refreshing to watch a documentary on this subject, that endeavors to move outside the ruts traveled by its predecessors. Most enjoyable. Thank you for posting!
The root causes of the depression are not discussed. Banks extending credit, while pulling dollars from circulation is huge. All competition to the large banks were destroyed, through financial terrorism.
We need to make sure that this time around we turn out frustrations on the people who are really responsible for our economic woes, the billionaire elites.
Dibs on Gates!!!!!!
We're absolutely being played towards another round of WW.
And so far, were being driven towards the same ends...
I hope We the People can aim correctly for once..cause the last 2 times we ended up aiming at each other FOR the wealthy.
Unfortunately history seems to repeat itself we as a species don't seem to be smart enough to learn from our mistakes 😒 war is always about old men fighting and young men dieing I say let the old men go and die for their own fight and never let us repeat the same stupidity that got us there just my opinion
Lmao
Billionaires are replaceable.
Unintended consequences can be disastrous.
There were economic signs that all was not wll with the economy here in the US before the Great Depression. Fortunate those who heeded them.
These historical series are amazing. I'm addicted to them
My dad would have been 102, my mom would be 93 and I am 58. My dad was 44 and I was 1when I was adopted. When I was very young I wanted to take my after dinner oreos( 2) outside with me so I could hurry up and get to my friends. My dad told that it wasn't nice to eat in front of other because, "you don't know the last time they ate.Bring enough to share or eat your cookies inside." He told me it was a real treat when the family had bacon grease sandwiches. My mom told me her and her sister would chew fresh tar because it tasted like black licorice.She said didn't have all the bad stuff in it back then.
Hi Ken ..my Dad would be 105 he was born in 1918 ...I'm 59 I was an unplanned child Pop was 44 when I was born. Dad followed " The Fruit Trail" from Indio to Olivehurst CA living in tents following the harvest during the Great Depression I'm replying to your comment because we had the same experience with Dads old enough to be our grandparents....I have a half sister 20 years older than me ...I loved just sitting and talking with Pop...He was an Island Hopper Combat engineer Amphibious WWII heavy drinker till I was 19-20 always talk to himself about the war when he was drunk so when he sobered up we'd sit and talk for hours in our driveway...I could ask him anything about anything!

Really enjoyed this video. I feel like my soul belongs in a different time. I feel so connected to history. I'd love to be able to go back to school and study history. But, I feel like time is not my friend, as I am getting older and find myself with less time to spare.
Everybody says that
What is TIME
Time waits for no one and won't wait for you
Time doesn't exist its just our perception of it
@Read a book love your comment and youtube name too! I turned 65 this year! ❄️🌎❄️❣️😶❣️
I just watch this and can't help to think about my grandmother. She was born in 1918 and would have been 12 when the Depression began. I see the clips of the small children and think how brave and strong she must have been to survive something so horrible.
My grandparents live through the Depression they had a potato Farm and they helped their neighbors. My Dad said if the Government won't help the people with higher wages better living then we are bound to have another Great Depression again. He said the people are the ones that keep America working. Not the Rich; he just passed away in 2020
Unfortunately we are at a point that people no longer want to work.
Ironically,
Forced higher wages are one of the driving forces pushing the inflation that is about to cause another Great Depression.
Sorry for your loss

@SpecialOpsSniperUSArmy #117,#119th Inf Div First of all, I want to thank you for Your Service to the United States. My late Father, My Uncle (his Brother who's still alive), and my late Step-Father were in the United States Air Force and all Vietnam War Veterans. I have very deep appreciation for our Men and Women in Uniform. Secondly, it isn't just the Democrats that have trashed our Country. RINO Republicans are equally as guilty for the state of affairs that we're all suffering now. My Best to You and Your Family. Raymond
Oh yes. And now people are concentrated in cities, and very, VERY few people know how to grow food, much less without fuel driven implements.
@SpecialOpsSniperUSArmy #117,#119th Inf Div I recently heard of this, and found it very disturbing. I don't spend too much time researching it, I'm focusing on personal food production with methods that don't require equipment. As well as harvest and preservation techniques for veg and meat, learning about herbal medicine (study backed), and general skills lost to time. We just have the mortgage to pay off. I can't stop the coming storm, but I can try to prepare for it.
@SpecialOpsSniperUSArmy #117,#119th Inf Div We differ in our religious beliefs, and I like in ground planting for the minerals, but I agree in building a long term pantry, 2nd amendment rights and responsibilities. Unfortunately we lost our things in a lake on fishing trip. Really sucked. Oh, and learning wild edibles or medicinal plants isn't so fruity. I'd like to know what I can eat and use if I have crop failures. The list gets longer the more I research. In WW2, American soldiers would bring Yarrow (a common weed) with them to stop bleeding. It's a fast acting styptic, and I've personally used it a lot. Good stuff.
@@NS-pf2zc I agree with you, "Natasha". A very good example was with AntiFa and "Black Lives Matter" when they took over that six block area of Seattle, Washington. They attempt to grow food by putting down a large mat of cardboard, layering it with an inch of soil, and planted vegetable seedlings in it. It was hilarious seeing the photos online. They expected the vegetables to be magically fully grown and ready for picking. I never had such a great laugh in my life. 🤪
The tax on salt was only part of the problem. The British were trying to block local production of salt, which could be picked up for free at the sea shore, and force the locals to buy salt imported from England.
Ghandi was jailed for collecting salt and encouraging others to do the same.
This is what we will end up with in the USA if things keep moving as they are. Even now you can see a shift towards making people more reliant on the government to care for them and keeping people from being self sustainable.

Yea we have lived through a depression ourselves! Or a severe resection not sure if we reached the depression point but it was pretty bad out here jobs was no where and they knew you could get you didn’t want! Now jobs are like every where and we have a shortage of labor! Who seen that coming!
"Shortage of jobs" is their way of excusing failure as employers and as governors of a large country.

Probably irrelevant, but the Queen was alive then. Her parents were the Duck and Duchess of York, and they had allowed their young daughters to be filmed and photographed. She still might have memories of the interwar period.
Our civilisation survived the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918-20. That pandemic killed 50-100M people worldwide and was no respecter of youth. Heaps of people in the prime of life died. Entire families with children died.
The Great Depression was very severe in rural America, where families were reduced to growing their own food other than a bit of flour and sugar. If the farm was mortgaged, the mortgagor often defaulted and lost his farm. What little money was earned, was reserved to pay property taxes. (State and local governments as a whole ran modest surpluses during the 1930s.) Few rural households had electric power or telephone service.
The stock market crash of October 1929 was a symptom of very troubled economic conditions, and not a cause of those troubles. For starters, stock ownership was not all that common, and most American businesses were proprietorships and partnerships. In 1929, most Americans households were small farmers or shopkeepers. Trust funds for widows and orphans, and the endowments of nonprofits, were forbidden by law from owning stocks.
The summer of 1930 was very hot and dry, which led to widespread crop failure and the inability to service farm mortgages.
The two worst months in American stock market history, a history that begins in January 31, 1871, when only 35 stocks were traded, were the:
* 34% decline in September 1931, when the Fed raised the discount rate from 4.5% to 6%, triggering 4-5 thousand bank failures, a decline in bank deposits of 30%, and a near total cessation of bank lending. During the winter of 1932-33, the ability of the American economy to survive this disaster was very much in doubt. Savings & loans survived this crisis by opting to ban withdrawals from passbook accounts. The cumulative decline from August 1931 to June 1932, was 100% (a negative value this large is possible because of continuous compounding);
* 25% decline in May 1940, when the Third Reich quickly conquered France, Belgium and Luxembourg. BTW, between February 1937 and April 1942, the American stock market declined 51% even though real GDP increased 46%. The market was mistakenly pessimistic about the outcome of the imminent WW2. During the first week of May, the USA fought and more or less won the Battle of Coral Sea. A month later, the US Navy won a huge and decisive victory over Japan at the Battle of Midway, starting a market rise that lasted until yearend 1945.
My grandpa and grandma grew up during the depression she said in Chicago during the summer they would do dandelion salad to try and survive and my grandpa said in Nebraska you'd be lucky to hunt a mouse or bird it was pretty rough they both never thought they went without though it was more extreme rationing especially for my grandpa because he grew up on a farm rip grandma I love you

This is why all of us need to learn how to grow food still. Just because we have grocery stores doesn’t mean we need to lose are knowledge on how to grow our own food. That’s a huge reason Russia had famines they forgot how to farm and plus the communist killed all the farmers in the gulags. Read autobiography Forgive Me Natasha to see for your self what can happen to us.
Hi! I post videos about gardening and self sufficiency!
Have a wonderful day and I hope to see you there🙂
The Russians took all the farmers crops at the end of harvest. Their was no time for a 2nd personal crop before winter. That's why they starved even knowing how to grow food.
Hiding food was a death sentence.

War debt is never really written off, except by bureaucrats. The People pay for generations to come.
I read an old book about WW1 years ago. In the introduction the author stated how many X Dollars the US was still (officially) in debt for... _the Civil War_ .
@Luc Faas No, dangit. I want to say that it was from the US Army Historical Series, but have had no luck tracking down that info. Been bugging me for decades. The reason I remember it is because I was astonished that there was still debt from 50 years earlier. From what I remember it wasn't a huge amount.

Don't over rate private charity. As FDR assumed office, he got constant reports on how the major charity organizations were running out of funds.
