The corporations? The elites? The majority of the people were still working during the depression --- so it won't hurt many of us. Many will be hurt --- maybe corporations most of all. There are worse things than depressions --- economies can collapse from the weight of Socialism --- like the Soviet Union. How much Socialism can we take? Someone has to pay for the living of all the permanent welfare class and unemployed. Plus we've got a million moving in from Mexico --- mostly impoverished and unskilled. Obviously we need to keep those families fed and given free health care.
