Answer 1

Ways to prevent the market crash in 1929.

1. Stop banks from loaning large amounts of money on speculation to investors.

2. Have banks federally insured for losses.

3. Have Wall street stop insider trading.

4. Have a relief program in place for the farmers in the west after WWI. Make sure that there is no overproduction of crops, and this will stop them from borrowing money. This was a cycle of debt for farmers. They would grow more product, and sell it for less, because the market was flooded with it. The farmers would then borrow money to buy more land, and equipment to make more crops to have the same thing happen the next season.
