what caused the great depression?10 reasons?

Answer 1

1) Inflexibility of the gold standard (by and far single largest cause)
2) Reduction in money supply by the Federal Reserve System
3)Systematic policy to control US inflation resulting in gold accumulation in the US and shortages abroad
4) Fiscal policy bias toward budget minimization
5) Unregulated capital markets (small cause)
6) Uneven application of credit protection laws (mortgages had protections while consumer credit did not, therefore people defaulted on mortgages over loans to buy refrigerators)
7)Poor global gold policy following World War I, resulting in skewed contracts between nation states.
8) Remarkably inflexible wages resulting in very high unemployment
9) Virtual non-existence of economics as a discipline, resulting in policy decisions now understood to be bad ideas
10) Poor armistice treaties resulting in tremendous damage to all parties.

Answer 2

I have been suffering from post partum depression for the past one year when I gave birth to a baby boy. I couldn't stop thinking about how my husband loves him more than me and how things might be better if he wasn't born at all. Thus, I stayed away from him because I knew that I might do something I will regret for the rest of my life.

Almost instantly I went to a therapist and convince them that I need help. Among other things, I've tried herbal supplements and other book to treat depression but nothing works like the Depression Free Method. So now I'm proud to say I'm one of the happiest mother in the world. My husband loves us both very much and I thank the Lord for the blessing he gave us.
