The United States is shouldering a greater debt burden today than it
did during the Great Depression.

This seems a no-brainer. Everyone didn't have their hands out in the
1930's,
more people lived on farms, Johnson's Great Society was a socialist dream,
etc.


And several million people were unemployed and many more living
in abject poverty.


Forgive me if I dont regard it as 'the good old days'
