Damn it my Liberal is showing.

I meant to say “What ended the Great Depression if it WASN’T FDR’s New Deal”

According to some wingnuts, it hasn’t ended. The great international banker/lib conspiracy simply diverted everyone by launching WW2 and then by pumping up the economy with borrowed money and imaginary credit, sort of a gigantic long-running Ponzi scheme. According to them, this house of cards is about to collapse and all assets will disappear; with the exception of gold, which they will gladly sell to you in return for some of that electronic/paper fiat money you’re holding.
