There is a big disconnect between what historians think about the Great Depression/New Deal and actual economists.
Hoover raised taxes, and more importantly, didn’t try to stop bank failures. Bank failures and deflation was the root cause of the Great Depression.
World War II did NOT end the Great Depression. During World War II, people were issued North Korean-style rationing books. The economy did not truly return to normal until President Eisenhower stared privatizing businesses.
The facts are on our side. Get educated in case you ever end up on national television.
