No, World War 2 helped end that cycle early, NOT FDR. Cycles are part of nature, they will happen one way or another. This one was just exacerbated by the relatively recently formed Fed Reserve and their decision to shrink the money supply so drastically.
http://www.amatecon.com/gd/gdoverview.html "What caused the Great Depression? To get a handle on that, it's necessary to look at previous depressions and compare. The Great Depression was by no means the first depression this country ever had, but it was clearly the worst. What made it different than the rest? At the time of the Great Depression, government intervention in the economy was higher than it had ever been and a special government agency had been set up specifically to prevent depressions and their associated problems, such as bank panics."
http://www.libertyhaven.com/theoreticalorphilosoph icalissues/economichistory/mysteries.shtml "Many free-market economists had attempted to answer the first question, including Benjamin M. Anderson and Murray N. Rothbard,2 but none had the impact equal to Milton Friedman's empirical studies on money in the early 1960s. His was the first effective effort to destroy the argument that the Great Depression was the handiwork of an inherently unstable capitalistic system. Friedman (and his co-author, Anna J. Schwartz) demonstrated forcefully that it was not free enterprise, but rather government - specifically the Federal Reserve System - that caused the Great Depression."
Your belief that the GD was caused by a Free Market has been misproven many times. It's still a common fallacy, but it's not true. But, I find it hard to believe that anyone can actually think that FDR saved us from it. He didn't. HITLER and HIROHITO brought us out of that slump.

The Great Depression was not a failure of the old order. It was the failure of the new order that had just begun. The Federal Reserve is the most powerful institution of a new order that believed in the efficacy of government and its ability to do good. The same Federal Reserve caused the Great Depression when its wise men made a series of cumulative mistakes that contracted the money supply by one-third and wiped out purchasing power in an unprecedented fashion."

Haven't you heard? There is no free market anymore. The US government thinks that the world would suddenly explode without their regulations and subsidies. It seemed to go just fine for the first 100-130 years of the nation, but they're not too great with studying history.
They're still not forced to buy it, recardless of if that's how they get their food. There are many other options out there and have been for years. I hope your being sarcastic here, but even if you are, the lack of freedom (to do business, IP, etc.) granted by the Ind. gov't is a bit scary.
"What makes you think he'll stand down after his second term? He's quite content to piss all over your Constitution, so why shouldn't he get a law passed allowing more than two terms of office?"
And what exactly are you using to base this assumption on? If he did get a "law passed" it would have to be a constitutional amendement, and are you really ignorent enough to blame him for the passage of something the drastic?
Somehow I think you are. Let me inform you, Bush didnot draft the Patriot Act, he did not go into the halls of congress and sign his name under the 'Yay' section of the bill. Your congressmen and women did this. I know many people are mad that they didn't get the president they wanted, but the president doesn't have all the power in the world. He is accountable to others and others are accountable for their legislative actions. Stop pinning it all on him.
Everything you cited seemed extremely obvious to me. Asthma hurts your ability to breath, smoking hurts your ability to breath, but you mean to say that if you have asthma and smoke it will be even worse? Ask anyone who has asthma and they with call you a dumbass for even questioning it.
How does them not making errors save them $2/hour? Most likely these typists have a certain amount of work to do, regardless of how fast (within reason) they do it they will still get it done. I'll bet at the end of the day on Friday (and maybe every other day) they are standing by the time clock waiting to punch out because they finished all their work already. So, instead of getting done at 1530 and clocking out at 1700 they will get done at 1630 and clock out at 1700.
BTW, maybe you should turn the temp up in your place (Cornel University study [cornell.edu])
There are MANY studies out there that show that children raised in single parent families are more likely to commit crimes than those raised with both a mother and a father. I'm sure you should be able to find at least one.
Show me one man who liked The Sims and I'll show you one man who's not really a man.

"Sarcasdic yeah, but pretty much accurate."
Accurate?? I don't think so. Everyone over there doesn't hate us. Not even a majority of them do. It is just a few that still support Hussein and a bunch of radical muslim warriors that already hated us and decided to go to Iraq where they actually have a chance (albeit small) at getting a few Americans killed. The Iraqi people do not hate us, and if they did, it's because the same media that's telling us they hate us is giving them unfounded reasons to hate us.

We probably should be offended, except it's coming from a MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHER, so we have nothing to worry abouyt.
Wow man, you just blew my mind. I'm not exacly bad with math and I know that was just simple algebra, but I've never seen it done that way. Thank you.

Not to mention that you don't have the right to protect yourself if someone threatens your life or property.

He did FUCKING ASK YOU. That's what his post was, a QUESTION.

Hurt you as in cause physical harm, not necessarily physical pain.

There is something wrong with you if you consider $315 for a PSP a "great deal."

It is very true.
