DG,  

re:"Look back at 1929 and the great depression."

Why? In the United States, the Great Depression was nothing. Certainly nothing compared to what's to come. The unemployment rate during the great depression ranged from 15% to 25%. We're as bad as that today.

The worst thing about the Great Depression was how long it lasted. It really was just a serious recession that FDR managed to prolong for a decade. It wouldn't have been anything like that if market forces have been in play and the business cycle had been allowed to complete.
