Thank you for the new information sir. I am a 65+ year old born at the end of the baby boomer era. My father was a decorated WW2 vet, but a lifelong victim of the Great Depression. He watched his successful Father and Mother lose everything … including their confidence in "the American Dream". My dad went to his grave forever fearful, dreadfully fearful, that another great depression would happen in his lifetime … and sadly, it reflected in how he related with Mom and how they raised us four in the 60s and 70s. He lived in constant fear.
My grandma and grandpa both were born in 1929 before the stock market crash and lived through the Depression. One day, I was eating an oatmeal cookie and I did not like it after one bite. I tossed the cookie in the trash can and my grandma walked over and reached into the trash can, picked it up, examined it, then ate it. I told her that we had plenty and she didn't have to eat from the trash. Her reply was surprising to me, "You don't waste food. You never grew up during the Depression." It was shocking to hear that as a kid. Especially a history nerd. I never truly understood what it was like for people during the Great Depression until that day when she told me about that. Years later, my father told me that his father, my grandpa, would have one pack of gum of year because he used to save chewed up gum for weeks because it was all he could get during the Depression. And my dad also told me that when he was a kid, his parents would tell him about how they only had one pair of shoes a year. And this lasted from the Depression until the end of WWII. My grandparents were very simple people. Very grateful for having what they had. I believe a lot of that stemmed from being children during the Depression.
I did my A-Level history exam today, and when writing the Great Depression question all I could hear in my head was John saying everything I wrote in a hysterical manner. It actually helped.
+andrew chedid So many problems with this video. like say... maybe instead of central banks and inflation, we should've been more concerned about ALL banks who loan out money that does not belong to them and/or is not backed up with anything? we could prevent a credit bubble from forming and bursting in the 1st place! P.S. Watch my video CORRUPT SECRETS OF THE DOLLAR EXPOSED on my channel PLAYITALREADY it is shorter/better about what i just mentioned than this guy's video.
Unfortunately false. Hoover pretty much supervised the recovery of Europe after WW1. He knew economics. The problem is the Democratic party that refused to enact any of his proposals until they got their own president, who then carried out Herbert Hoover's programs and took all the credit. Recovery would have come much sooner if they had cooperated.
@@michaelwoods4495 Hoover knew how to make money but his understanding of economics was terrible. His only saving grace is he recognized a bubble was happening. Other than that, he was terrible.
my great grandma was born in 1920 and I thought it was the funniest thing. this little old 90 something year old lady would sit there and cuss out herbert hoover. someone I honestly have no opinion of
Can't cuss out Trump, since the corporate media does it constantly, they doth protest too much. Obama on the other hand, was their golden child. Hardly a hardball question or scathing criticism to be found in the worst 8 years of modern American history.
I agree, that was alot of words. Especially if you're not interested in economics. I find it rather suspicious that after all these years no one can give an explanation for the cause of the depression that the layperson can understand well enough to repeat.
Probably nobody going to see this, but I think that it would be generally helpful if we were given a maybe 1 paragraph overview in the description. Just a suggestion. I love these videos, don't get me wrong, but I have trouble actually processing John Green talking. He talks so fast!
Keenan Sullivan trump and Hoover are really similar! they are weirdly similar! Hoover expressed COMPLETE faith in American system, and would rather blame foreign forces than reform USA system. He rejected all proposals for big government plans, relied on voluntary private charities and local govt to take place of federal government, said that handouts would undermine American character, and he also cut taxes.
In 2015-2018 in perkins oklahoma middleschool in 8th grade my teachers always played your videos and taught us through them 70% of the time and it was always so interesting and I just came across this channel today and thought it looked familiar and then I realised why. Thank you sir for your dedication to teach 🙏
One of the biggest myths of the depression was Hoover did nothing. In fact FDR’s treasury secretary said that most of the new deal was started during Hoover’s administration
Hold on here, the deflationary cycle could have happened because of all the consumption during the 1920s up to 1929. The fed already pumped lots of money in the economy by setting low interest rates. This made for an increase of the money supply across the country by more than 50% if I read it right. This can explain the deflationary period and asset bubble in the stock market. More loans default due to overleverage because of the liberal loans. I miss good old Austrian economics in here :) By the way 2020 exam history student :)
@@heyyou7881 assuming the governments around the world take unprecedented action to keep people afloat this shouldn't become the next great depression imo
Thanks this helps with my Project! I would like to add that this is very well organized. I like how you combine facts with a bit of comedy to keep the audience interested. Nice job!
My grandparents were poor and very affected by the depression. But, my grandmother, bless her soul, was known by the transients (hoboes) in town and that they could get a warm and filling noonday meal. They would line up at her back door, and she would bring out a big kettle of soup or other simple foods, and made sure that these poor souls got at least one hot meal during the day. My grandfather wasn't thrilled about it, but he knew that she never fed them until HE had his hot meal of the day first. So many folks rallied around at that time in our history, helping others even though they themselves were hurting, too.
This has been predicted by Karl Marx though. A capitalist system built to favor a small class of people that accumulate wealth without a cap tends to lead to an economy that eats itself. The corona virus may have made things worse and accelerated the economic downturn but we were already over due for one according to the few economist that aren't delusional. 1. We need a wealth cap. 2. Businesses should be structured more democratically (worker coops) to install checks and balance, transparency, accountability and increased economic mobility in the workplace. 3. A more comprehensive progressive taxation system. 4. The economy should not be run mostly on debt. There should be a limit to how much debt is taken. 5. Essential work should be tax free such as doctors and farmers to safeguard those positions while also encouraging more interest in those essential jobs. (Just an idea) 6. Central banking is necessary and there should be better regulation on federal printing/spending.
@@filmfan885 The only other place to contact me is through Discord (which i hardly use nowadays) Tengen#7136 These ideas are fine to talk about but in no way would we ever expect these ideas to actually be implemented. What i would strongly advocate for is not really popular enough among the common population and the members of congress who actually work the process. For now, it's just talk and ideas (that may or may not actually work).
My great-grandparents died of starvation during the Great Depression. My grandfather had a wife and 7 kids, no job. He stole bread from a store and was in jail for 6 months. During that time, no one could help his parents, and they both died. It says on their death certificates--Died from malnutrition. A truly sad time.
A Lou me too. Just watch some counter arguments to this. For example they saying deflation was better than inflation but both are terrible. And the Great Depression lasted as long as it did for more reasons than not leaving the gold standard and other progressive economic ideas not being implemented.
Somehow the history of the 1927 stock market crash never mentions FDR‘s part in causing the crash. FDR was New York’s governor, and at the time, the states regulated the stock exchanges. FDR failed to properly regulate the New York Stock Exchange, the largest stock exchange by far, and that led to the wild speculation that led to the crash.
The problem with this analysis is that employment is always a lagging indicator of economic growth or decline. Bringing on new employees or laying them off is always a reaction to changing economic conditions, not a cause of it. Using employment to indicate the beginning of a depression is like using flooding to mark the beginning of a storm.
I guess the upside of the horrible events happening right now (pandemic, record breaking unemployment, etc) is that more people are turning to history to try to learn from our mistakes and take the best foot forward. Keep on learning history, it's always more relevant than you think!

6:34 And then, when the world needed more trade, America responded by increasing tariffs to their highest levels ever. The idea behind the tariffs was to protect American industry, but since Europe responded with their own high tariffs, this meant less buyers of American goods, less trades, fewer sales, and ultimately.... fewer jobs
Before the Great Depression, panics, recessions and depressions lasted no more than a few years. The government never involved itself in these short setbacks. Suddenly in the 1930s, the Federal Reserve raised the discount (interest) rates and the United States government raised tariffs and taxes and increased regulations on businesses. The Great Depression lasted 10 years. And the New Deal which raised taxes even more and increased regulations caused the economy to be even worse. The trough of the Great Depression occurred in 1937, four years after the start of the New Deal. Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau stated, " We have spent millions of dollars, and it has done nothing."
A super rich businessman who has never been elected to any other office? That doesn't sound anything like any candidate that could be elected within the next year.

I learned significantly more watching this for 15 minutes, than I did in 3 years of studying Economics at uni
Before the Great Depression, panics, recessions and depressions lasted no more than a few years. The government never involved itself in these short setbacks. Suddenly in the 1930s, the Federal Reserve raised the discount (interest) rates and the United States government raised tariffs and taxes and increased regulations on businesses. The Great Depression lasted 10 years. And the New Deal which raised taxes even more and increased regulations caused the economy to be even worse. The trough of the Great Depression occurred in 1937, four years after the start of the New Deal. Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau stated, " We have spent millions of dollars, and it has done nothing."
if a 14 minute RUclips video is good enough research for exams these days, I worry about our educational systems.
Government involvement is not the best solution to fix a recession it make a bigger bubble in the economy
You are amazing, John. Kudos!
A super rich businessman who has never been elected to any other office? That doesn't sound anything like any candidate that could be elected within the next year.
History truly repeats itself.
Hoover was a former head of FDA under Wilson and former Secretary of Commerce under Harding before being elected to the Presidency.
Elected office, not any public office. The offices you mention are gained through appointment not elections.
History is a damn circle
*Liberal* By the way, Trumps been a great president so far

History repeats itself
