I am rather amazed that the intro puts the end of the Depression at The late 30's or early 40's. Almost everything I have read recently puts it at ending somewhere between 1949 and 1954, following the successful re-integration of the troops, the conversion from a war-time to a peace-time ecomomy, and the decrease of the federal budget. I am also amazed that Congress had no apparent participation in the event other than hogtiing the Federal Reserve. Otherwise, a lot of good, rather even handed information.Truthful contrarian (talk) 15:11, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
