The Depression Creator- Hoover
How he created and didn't help with the depression
Hoover Letting American Economy Crash
Hoover remained minimal in the depression because he believed that the government should have minimal interaction with the economy. He believed in helping people that helped themselves even though most of american couldn't even afford to get some food from the store and had lost all of their life savings and the money they had when the banks closed because they ran out of money

Bank lines
This is a picture of the lines people would be in to wait to get their money out of the banks that were closing down, once the banks had no more money and thousands upon thousands of people lost all of the money that they had put in the banks
Hoovers Philosophy
Hoover strongly believed in no handouts, if the poor needed help charities like the red cross and catholic churches would help them not the government. All the while Hoover not helping out the people and economy, the unemployment was rising, banks were declaring bankruptcy. People were miserable through out the depression and hoover did little to nothing to help them get back on their feet and reestablish the stock market
