The Great Depression also caused The price of coffee, cotton, rubber, tin, and other commodities dropped 40 percent. And  the collapse in raw material and agricultural commodity prices led to social unrest, resulting in the rise of military dictatorships that promised to maintain order around the world. The Great Depression was a global economic crisis that may have been triggered by political decisions including war reparations post-World War I, protectionism such as the imposition of congressional tariffs on European goods or by speculation that caused the Stock Market Collapse of 1929.

Unemployment was a big issue, going back to trades, if a country couldn't trade with another then that meant they no longer had the products and would be out of a job and no money to be made. As recently learned, no money = banks crashing, which will help lead into the Great Depression.

The European Nations were struggling to pay off their debts and the U.S. was making it worse because they were raising their tariffs because of the stock markets. 30 million people were unemployed around the world in 1932. The prices of coffee, cotton, rubber, tin, and others commodities dropped 40%. Collapse in raw materials led to social unrest which lead to the rise of military dictatorships.

Areas like Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North and South all were affected by the collapse. Trade between these regions fell to 30 percent since everyone was raising their tariffs in hopes of helping their industries. Around the world, a estimated total of 30 million people were unemployed. The war may have caused the Great Depression because of the political decisions after the war including war reparations for Germany. Imposition on congressional tariffs on European goods that caused the collapse of the stock market crash of 1929.

Those were the days where the stock market went down by 23%. The three major causes of the Great Depression is the speculation, the economy, and people buying the stock market with credit. With the speculation, the stock market was growing too fast, making the values less than what they actually are. The economy was slowing down but the market continued to rise as the people were struggling. People were buying credit when they didn't have the money to fully get what they wanted and so they'll put down a payment and pay off the rest. 
-Another thing that I have learned about the Great Depression is about the bull market and the bull run. The bull market happened on October 24th, 1929 and what it was about is 13 million people sharing their trades causing the stock market to make a turn for the worse. The bull run was when millions of paper where taking out their stocks and money before it crashed and they were trying to sell what they can and it caused problems among the citizens.

One of the things I learned was that the Depression was not only in the US but there was also a depression in Europe. That was because of the damages caused by WWI. I also learned that there was 30 million people were unemployed around the world during the depression. The depression in Europe caused for a rise in military dictatorships because the people were desperate for change and wanted anyone that could make a change. 
I learned about the different acts that raised tariffs such as the Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act. I learned that Hoover believed in the trickle down effect.

Although I knew about the great depression before this unit, I did not know all the causes and effects in depth as I do now. This Unit taught me many good lessons for life and mainly the consequences for wrongly using credit.
The main cause for the great depression would have to be wrongly using credit. The introduction of installment plans in the roaring twenties enticed people to buy products that they could not actually afford. People were putting things on credit and not paying for them. This caused the economy to become very unstable. Even worse, people were allowed to buy stocks on margin which was only paying for ten percent of them but still owning them. This caused a false bull market and eventually the prices would have to come back down. People who did not get out of the market in time lost their whole life savings. Also, banks were running out of money because of bank runs which were when many people went to retrieve their money from the bank at the same time. Banks were forced to close because they did not have any more money and for this reason, people who did not get their money out in time, lost it all. 
This taught the country a lesson and now banks and other places that give out loans can check a person's credit score to better guess if they will pay the money back or not. The US also had the FDIC now which protects a person's money if a bank closes or the economy crashes. Overall, the great depression was a horrible time, but it helped the country in the long run.]]> 2019-03-08 18:14:06 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339418815 Briana lewisb51_stu https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339423435 I have learned the more political aspects about the Great Depression era such as The Red Scare which was driven by the fear of Americans due to communism. Many unethical things happened during this time such as the Sacco and Vanzetti trial. They were falsely accused of committing a murder just for being Italian. I also learned that America essentially brought it on themselves by not controlling their spending in the Roaring 20's and the government not regulating said spending. President Herbert Hoover barely helped with the Great Depression. He believed in rugged individualism where people of the country basically tried to fend for themselves. He only began helping at the very end which lead to him not being reelected and President FDR winning the race. FDR strove to end the Depression. He had New Deals and believed in the three R's: relief, recovery, and reform. He was way more liked than Hoover and worked hard to fix the economy. He tried to provide jobs through the military and he held fireside chats on the radio to try and comfort Americans. During the Great Depression, 30% of Americans were unemployed. However, that is only an overall percentage as that also meant that almost entire states were unemployed. There are images of men in full business suits outside of soup kitchens. I also learned that the Great Depression was not strictly an American issue. Many countries had an economic downfall due to high tariffs and loss of trade partners. The Great Depression also caused a rise in fascism and militarism in Germany which offhandedly fueled Hitler and lead to World War 2. Around 30 million people around the entire world were unemployed at this time.]]> 2019-03-08 18:25:24 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339423435 Task 5 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339425713 2019-03-08 18:30:35 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339425713 karri https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339426256 2019-03-08 18:31:58 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339426256 Wesley https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339426765 The Great depression was the worst economic depression America has ever experienced. Lots of people invested in the stock market which crashed on black Tuesday, October 29th, 1929. This depression lasted 10 years and left 25% of Americans unemployed.

Many people who were unemployed could not support themselves or their family. They relied on free soup kitchens to get meals and the kitchen wasn't open everyday. Many Americans were reliant on the government to make a change but they weren't doing a lot. Eventually America moved out of the depression. ]]> 2019-03-08 18:33:16 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339426765 Felipe Rodri https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339430152 what i learned from this assignment is that many reforms and enactments are still in effect to this day. one of them is the FDIC, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, is what was put in place by FDR to make sure that money can be insured by depositors. this was put in place once money from the Great Depression went poof once the market crashed and everyone lost their life savings. while researching i found out that the common farmer was in much dire need instead of the common person. since farmers needed to consistently take out loans for growing  crops they were always in the hole and once the Great Depression hit they were hit even harder. the use of credit was the major reason why the stock market fell and the Great Depression happened.
while doing research on FDR i found out that he made a 3 day holiday for banks to cool off the market and to restore some balance in between. this saved about 1000 banks and made it sure that they will continue to help out. ]]> 2019-03-08 18:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339430152 Task 3 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339430288 2019-03-08 18:41:09 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339430288 Dillon Jenkins https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339434573 I learned from this project that the stock market crashed in October 29,1929. Many bank runs came of this. Many people tried to get their money out before the banks ran out of money but in the end just took the banks out of business. Hoover was the president during this time. He believed in rugged individualism and volunteerism. He was known as the president who built the Hoover dam. Many people had depression humor such as hoover flags, hoover blankets, hoover leather and Hooverville. Many Americans thought of depression as their own fault. The stock market crashed because of the system of buying on credit and installment plans. Also buying on margin was a major cause of the great depression.]]> 2019-03-08 18:50:57 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339434573 T'Montae Bell https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339434678 I learned that many individuals suffered from starvation during this time, people couldn't really afford anything. People tried to get their money out the banks but because everyone could do it, the banks was closing because they ran out of money to help people. Many people died from being unemployed because they couldn't afford anything. There were about 30 million unemployed people during this time. The stock market crash in 1929, when everything started to happened, people started to come homeless and poor. Banks started to go out for business because many people came to get their money out their savings account and banks started to run out of money. ]]> 2019-03-08 18:51:14 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339434678 Kathryn Etters https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339798887 Something that I have learned about the Great Depression is many people suffered hard through this period of time. Many could not afford to feed there families or afford a home to stay in. Individuals lost lots of their money that they could not get out of the bank in time. A major cause of this happening to families was the Stock market crashing, causing many to go into a panic. This was a period of time where many were poor and had hardly nothing left. ]]> 2019-03-11 04:10:19 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339798887 Peyton Clapton https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/339885377 The Great Depression also caused The price of coffee, cotton, rubber, tin, and other commodities dropped 40 percent. And  the collapse in raw material and agricultural commodity prices led to social unrest, resulting in the rise of military dictatorships that promised to maintain order around the world. The Great Depression was a global economic crisis that may have been triggered by political decisions including war reparations post-World War I, protectionism such as the imposition of congressional tariffs on European goods or by speculation that caused the Stock Market Collapse of 1929. The recovery from the Great Depression was spurred largely by the abandonment of the gold standard and the ensuing monetary expansion. The economic impact of the Great Depression was enormous, including both extreme human suffering and profound changes in economic policy.

The market had grown more than what people thought and the stocks were worth than what the companies were.People also used stocks as collateral. I also learned what the term Bull Market mean. It is the rise of prices of the stock. 

Another thing that I learned was about Hawley-Smoot Tariff and the Glass- Steagall Act. They were created by Herbert Hoover during the Great Depression. The Hawley- Smoot Tariff raised tariffs on imports to the highest they ever been. The Glass- Steagall Act was th]]> 2019-03-11 16:05:25 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340032440 Task 3 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340043804 2019-03-11 16:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340043804 Task 3 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340047468 2019-03-11 16:30:32 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340047468 Task 1 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340072253 2019-03-11 17:14:53 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340072253 Task 2 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340074533 2019-03-11 17:19:11 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340074533 Task 3 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340074612 2019-03-11 17:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340074612 Task 5 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340085875 2019-03-11 17:39:28 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340085875 Taylor Epps https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340085914 One thing I learned about the Great Depression was the impact the presidents really had on the economic downfall. The Depression started with Harding and lasted to Roosevelt's presidency. Harding, Hoover and Coolidge all believed in the laissez-faire economy. The less the government got involved with business the worse those businesses affected the economy. Hoover and Coolidge honestly did nothing for the falling economy. Coolidge even saw the economy falling and did nothing about it. 

Another thing I learned about the Great Depression was how the unemployment dropped over 30%. People had no money and life during the depression was horrible. The Great Depression caused huge economic impact including the suffering of citizens. The closing of banks caused people to have no money and lead to starvation and nowhere to live.]]> 2019-03-11 17:39:32 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340085914 Task 2 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340086904 2019-03-11 17:41:13 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340086904 Erica Hernandez https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340089546 The Great Depression were years of unemployment, sadness, and madness. The people blamed the Great Depression on Herbert Hoover. Hoover believed in rugged individualism and did not do anything until his last years of presidency. He created jobs when he made the Hoover Dam and soup kitchens. The Great Depression was caused by consumerism and speculation where many people invested in the stock market and lost large amounts of money when it crashed. 
What I learn about the Great Depression is that the Presidents saw this coming and didn't do anything to stop it from happening. I had already knew what FDR did to help the US get out of the Depression. I did not know that Hoover was in a great place to help and didn't. The Great Depression was caused by everyone and everyone wanted to blame on someone else. It is like today when people don't want to take the blame for their actions. ]]> 2019-03-11 17:45:54 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340089546 Task 4 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340090662 2019-03-11 17:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340090662 Task 5 https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340090720 2019-03-11 17:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340090720 Bethany https://padlet.com/warrens_rrhs/xt93o35351ws/wish/340243808 The Great Depression has been one of my favorite times in history to learn about. Throughout this section I have learned many things. The Great Depression was a worldwide economic depression that lasted 10 years. It began on “Black Thursday," in 1929. Over the next four days, stock prices fell and that led to the stock market crash of 1929 . After the stock market crashed it was made worse by the 1930s Dust Bowl. President Franklin D. Roosevelt responded to the depression with programs known as the New Deal. During the Great Depression the American people were affected drastically. The Great Depression affected all aspects of society. Unemployment had risen from 3 percent to 25 percent of the nation’s workforce.The Depression caused many farmers to lose their farms. At the same time, years of over growing and drought created the “Dust Bowl”, which destroying production in many places. Thousands of these farmers and other were left unemployed and were forced to migrate in search of work. Many ended up living as homeless “hobos.” Others moved to shantytowns called “Hoovervilles," named after the President Herbert Hoover.
