The Fruits of Graft: Great Depressions Then and Now

Economic depressions have causes. This book identifies specific actions to cause, deepen and prolong the Great Depression of 1929-1940. And, it names the culpable officials and the private interests which influenced them. The mercantilist economic system imposed by America's small circle of dominant elite is examined from colonial days to 2011, with emphasis on FDR and the Great Depression, the Federal Reserve, the SEC, the US dollar and the financial crashes of 2000 and 2008.
