and easy credit was one of the factors in the latest recession.
The safety nets you mention are under attack by the extremists, who seem to think that the real reason the depression ended was spending for WWII, and not the New Deal, FICA, SS, etc. What do you think of that?
World War 2 got us out of the depression since it heightened the demand for manufactured goods which gave people jobs , brought up stocks in certain places . I can say that The safety nets kept the recession from becoming another depression . Most of the SS and Fica was implemented after the great depression .
