The Great Depression was not a crisis for capitalism but merely an example of the downturn part of the business cycle, which was generated by government intervention in the economy.

Even so, its appearance in 1963 meant that free-market advocates had their first full-scale treatment of this crucial subject.

The current crisis is not like 2008 or even 1929. The New Depression that has emerged from the COVID pandemic is the worst economic crisis in US history. Most fired employees will remain redundant. Bankruptcies will be common, and banks will buckle under the weight of bad debts.

The happy talk from Wall Street and the White House is an illusion. The worst is yet to come.

The American economy is strong in large part because nobody believes that America would ever default on its debt. Yet in 1933, Franklin D.

American Default is the story of this forgotten chapter in America's history.

We have seen this situation before and we know how to fix it; all we lack is the political will to take action.
