The longest period of blah blah is already over.
Question is how long and deep will the trough be.
As I explained before, my opinion is that monetary measures will turn out to be have a smaller then expected impact on the economy.
Fiscal measures, however (tax cuts and gov spending on national infrastructure projects - Hoover dam as a model) will have the desired Keynesian effect in pulling the economy up from the low point, but only AFTER the excesses are wrung out of the system.
It will take time. Unlike a recession that can end abruptly, the pulling out of depression is slow at first and picks up as it goes on. I'm talking years to the low point and years to pull out.
