56. From what I can find with research, a great depression helps those with
liquid cash. Most Americans who are NOT in the 1% do NOT have liquid assets. Thus, the 1% will be the ones to get even more wealthy from what you are "wanting" to happen.
All the business enterprises that were bought and sold during the depression by people with liquid cash are too numerous to mention, but because of the war effort, those with liquid cash who bought land, homes, companies, or invested in the stocks of the companies that made products that were in demand by our government for the war effort made millions. These industries included such products as: 1 – Metals: steel, iron and aluminum 2 – Communications: radios and parts 3 – Transportation: Aircraft, Tanks, boats and vehicles (and their parts) 4 – Armaments: Guns and munitions 5 – Boots, clothing, belts, backpacks, hats, blankets, tents and cots (and the textiles to make them) 6 – Containers 7 – Shipping – Truck Transportation – Railways 8 – Oil and petroleum and stocks in those oil wells (the Texas oil boom was a biggie!) |
