  • Yes, and only the SEC really still exists.

    Nor am I a fan of the SEC as I think they do more harm than good in 1.) Granting investors a false sense of security & 2.) Giving incentive through many of the specific regulations to keep information concealed.

    For an economic analysis of the New Deal, read "New Deal or Raw Deal?" & "FDR's Folly". FDR's "reforms" is what made the Depression, "Great"....

  • yeah, and what made that crash that was even worse than the one in 1929 not turn into a bigger depression, was FDR's reforms. Haven't you ever heard of the SEC, AAA, TVA, CCC, etc.?

  • Well, the word "proof" for economic analysis is a little too blunt.

    I could give you the example of the 1987 stock market crash. Very few people even know about or remember this crash even though it was larger than the 1929 crash - believe it or not. Greenspan was the fed chairman and Reagan was President. I think they all followed wise economic policies following that massive crash and we avoided not only a recession, but a depression.

  • He was a liberal,he told the wealthy to give up their wealth to follow him.I would assume that if they didn't they would burn in hell.
