In recent posts of yours one finds the views that: 1. The 1930s were not hard times. 2. Crashes in the stock markets occur at intervals of at least 55 years, ranging upwards. I guess the definition of "hard times" is subjective, but an awful lot of people found the 1930s hard, according to everthing I have ever heard or read elsewhere. 25% unemployment in the U.S. to start with. As to automobile sales: aaca.org Here's a site with links to the "ten worst crashes" over about the last hundred years.
