• En Estados Unidos, tras la Gran Depresión, se invirtió mucho en infraestructuras para crear mucho empleo.

• La crisis [la Gran Depresión] descubrió a un gran hombre en Franklin Roosevelt... Demasiado pronto ha llevado a Estados Unidos a la segunda etapa de la realización democrática. Su New Deal implica tales controles colectivos de la empresa nacional que sería absurdo llamarlo otra cosa que socialismo, si no fuera por un prejuicio persistente de los viejos días individualistas contra esa palabra... Tanto Roosevelt como Stalin estaban intentando producir un enorme estado socialista, moderno y científicamente organizado, el uno a partir de una crisis de advertencia y el otro a partir de un caos.

• But if, if you take a look at what would have happened, I mean, do we need to see soup lines down the street to figure out what would have happened? We avoided - and all economists will tell you that millions of jobs were saved because of the Recovery Act, and we avoided a second Great Depression. That, that is a reality.

• From the Great Depression, to the stagflation of the seventies, to the current economic crisis caused by the housing bubble, every economic downturn suffered by this country over the past century can be traced to Federal Reserve policy. The Fed has followed a consistent policy of flooding the economy with easy money, leading to a misallocation of resources and an artificial 'boom' followed by a recession or depression when the Fed-created bubble bursts.

• De hecho, la FHA nació de la Gran Depresión, causada también en gran parte por una crisis de ejecuciones hipotecarias. A principios de la década de 1930, las hipotecas eran en su mayoría préstamos "bullet" a tres o cinco años, que no se amortizaban y vencían en su totalidad al vencimiento.

• El mercado de valores se desplomó en octubre de 1929. Pero esa no fue la causa de la Gran Depresión. En mi opinión, fue un elemento muy secundario. Lo que sucedió fue que de 1929 a 1933 hubo una contracción importante que, en mi opinión, fue causada principalmente por el fracaso del Sistema de la Reserva Federal, para seguir el curso de acción para el que fue creado. Fue creado para prevenir exactamente lo que sucedió de 1929 a 1933. Pero en lugar de prevenirlo, lo facilitaron.
