But actually, the Depression didn't end until after FDR died.


btw I'm sure a few million people wouldn't mind seeing the unemployment rate drop to, say, an 8% level, kind of like your boy-genius promised. Don't suppose that'll happen any time soon, do you? I'm kind of a result-oriented guy, how about yourself?
