The Great Depression


I am really glad I wasn't alive when The Great Depression was going on! Some people think that we were really close to a second Great Depression last year! During The Great Depression banks failed and all the money your family had earned was gone, you had to sell your house, etc. More people would have lost their jobs now because one of the reasons so many people were fired during The Great Depression was because machines took over their jobs. Also other businesses had to close down or risk bankruptcy. This is only part of what made The Great Depression so horrible!
