Before the great depression there where a number of severe downturns (which tended to be called "panics" then rather then "depressions".)

They where quire painful, but people pulled out of them by operating in a free market.


Yes, after years.......in the meantime, many people suffered and lost everything. Since the great depression, our downturns have not been as severe. I prefer the latter.......which requires gov't involvement.
