Discussion #7: Where should we place the blame for the Great Depression?
Where should we place the blame? Economists believe the Great Depression was caused by the weaknesses in the 1920s economy, but the person whose name will be forever linked to the depression is President Herbert Hoover. Personally blaming him for the crisis, Americans started to call the shantytowns set up by unemployed people "Hoovervilles."
Answer the following question:
Should we compare Presidents Hoover and President Roosevelt's attempts to deal with the depression?
