    No I just have common sense enough to see through your disingenuous statistics. Please post up the top 10 number of cases in relation to each country's death rate and get back to me... but you wont do that because it will destroy your argument

    My disingenuous stats ? Sure, I made them up and sent them to the labor department. Don’t you wish you could find something, anything that said differently. You can’t

    rationing was related to the war effort, not depression.

    "The timing of the Great Depression varied across the world; in most countries, it started in 1929 and lasted until the late 1930s." (The beginning of the recovery.)

    "The common view among economic historians is that the Great Depression ended with the advent of World War II.
    When the United States entered the war in 1941, it finally eliminated the last effects from the Great Depression and brought the U.S. unemployment rate down below 10%
    ."

    I'll believe Wikipedia over you any day.

    Those are opinions and not arguments, including your broad ad hominem.

    It is like this(according to my Grandma who lived through both) During the Great Depression there was no money and lots of things to buy, during the war there was lots of money but very little to buy with it. A depression is a time of a loss of income, there was no loss of income during WWII.

    I don't care about what you believe, or not believe. Wallow in nonsense. You're still free for now to think as you like.
    However, I have economists & historians with names & faces that back me up.

    Why are none of your "economists & historians with names & faces that back (you) up" balanced, neutral, and/or unbiased? They all feed you the right wing viewpoint you want. Wikipedia isn't like that. The fact is that your dates of the G.D. are not valid, even though you tried to change the subject..

    The virus, yes ... but not every nation let it get to 1.6 million cases. That part was all Trump.

    Florida too and texas is picking up steam quickly from what I can observe. Was kn a plane yesterday, 70% full, everyone getting stuff done and no a-holes like Dr. Freeride posting images for social media to complain about, the people that want things to return to normal are out there living life again.

    The doom & gloomers haven't changed, except what they complain about. So annoying these people.

    fake news, if the Trump economy was so great, the fed would have raised interest rates and would not of been dumping billions into the economy

    the reason the fed was doing that was to keep the economy afloat, that does not happen during a great economy, let alone as you claim... the "greatest" economy

    Yes, Trump may engage us in a large war, to ward off the GREATEST DEPRESSION. The Trump depression. He is engaging us in economic wars, to try to scare back work to our shores.

    Every nation has had some kind of social distancing and/or lockdown.

    So whose politics?

    Hope someone let the virus know that determination to 'get stuff done' is magical armour.

    The whole world knows who that is. Nice attempted dodge, but no one believes you.
