Not mentioning the Dust Bowl and the effects that had on agriculture and society when it was a huge factor in the great depression is irresponsible. Far more people as a percentage of the populace worked in agriculture then than do now. You woefully misrepresented what caused the great depression dude. As you said, only ~2% of the populace owned stocks then. Of course the stock market speculation played a part in the bank failures, but the untold number of acres across the central USA that were un-farmable due to bad land care practices which caused the top soil to be blown away during the prolonged drought was dramatically more important to the unemployment rate and pervasiveness of economic distress during the great depression…
@EconChrisClarke
November 11, 2025 at 8:02 pm
20% of population worked on ag. 10% of farm land was affected by dust bowl. That works out to 0.10*0.20=0.02 or 2% of the nation’s workforce affected in some way. Unemployment got up to 25%. It was devastating for the region, but isn’t a main explanation for the national contraction.

This is why I disagree with the automotive tariffs. There are vehicles abroad that last longer, made cheaper, and save more on gas. But the US protects the automotive industry, meaning no innovation, higher prices, and less reliable. I watched this the last 15 years as a mechanic. I wish we had more options so Ford and Chevrolet can be forced to innovate rather than having vehicles that light up the CHECK ENGINE light only after 200 miles!!!

Displace all the natives, because we greedily want their lands. Kill all the bison, because we’re hungry and they taste good. Kill all the wolves, because they poach our chickens and cows.
Honestly, given how often humanity takes actions that ultimately and seriously harm our own ability to survive, it’s kind of amazing that humans persist, today.

If anything, the fact that more people owned cars now than then is a sign that things are set up to be worse, not better.

There are contradictions here. If a business fails in a depression environment its cutting the fat. If a bank fails in a depression environment, we can only blame the environment? That’s not how it works. Spinsters are protecting the wealthy. That’s the system we are in.

That whole getting off the gold standard was a good thing narrative is nonsense… I hate how economist only highlight the good and ignore all the negatives.

What are you talking about when you say tariffs will only affect “the economy” by 1 or 2%? The stock market?
Because you just finished talking about how the stock market is *not* the real economy.
The tariffs (as well as existing and worsening monopolies) affect the real economy and real people in the middle and lower classes in catastrophic ways.
Especially since they are happening at the same time as the removal of essential social programs.
But I guess I shouldn’t be surprised if this dude actually still believes in Friedman’s theories.

This man clearly loves what he teaches. I remember when I took economics, my professor truly bored me. It wasn’t until I started watching YouTube videos about it that I was able to learn about it and retain the information. Would love if he was on again!

2:50 Is this accurate anymore? Or even back in the 1920s? I thought private banks can simply fabricate new money deposits out of thin air when borrowers wants a loan – aka “endogenous money creation”

25:44 Most important question + most naive response. Given the role of the incoming AI boom, this arm of government will have to be reinstituted and no the economy will not just simple “recover” once AI takes over fully

Back in 1933 people stated investing pension funds, and huge money into 7 tech stocks and thought AI was the future in 1933. 😂 Tariffs lol sounds like Trump today
