The failure of many banks, runs on banks, and a general climate of financial panic played an important role in the Great Depression. After taking office in early March 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt made a radio address (a “Fireside Chat”) outlining federal strategy to reopen the banking system. The system had been closed as part of a “bank holiday” declared by president to halt panics and runs. Although many other aspects of New Deal policy often receive more attention, backing up the banking system at least prevented the Depression from worsening. Prevention of financial panics remains an important economic policy in the contemporary world. This is Part 1.

Everything you wanted or needed to know about how our Federal Reserve and fractional banking creates inflation and debases our currency. I like this video because the only HONEST, GENUINE, PATRIOTIC politician in the congress speaks at about the 6:30 mark. Americans, your money is being stolen from you via the hidden tax of inflation. These trillions of dollars in bailouts are going to lead to many, many trillions more dollars in the money supply. We will pay more for everything, and the government has basically guaranteed the demise of the dollar. It’s time to wake up people and put and end to this mess. No more voting for these republicrats who have put us in this mess. Think for yourselves and stop being a slave to the government, the Wall Street Mafia, and their media. Take care and God Bless. Peace. CJ in California
