federal reserve

Institution that caused the great depression.

The Federal Reserve loaned out extra lines of credit to lower banks and those banks loaned out the extra credit to the people. In Capitalism there wouldn't be extra money given to banks to loan out. The banks would restrict credit and the business cycle would stablize itself.
When the economy turned bad starting in the mid 1920s people couldn't pay back all of their credit, banks lost money and failed, and the Great Depression started.
Thanks to socialist institutions like the Federal Reserve, we entered the Great Depression, only to be saved by the capitalistic industrialists of the WWII era

How did your referat go?

I didn't get to give my referat, because we didn't have time for me to give it. The professor just totally forgot about my referat, so I'll have to do it next week. And I stayed up all night working on my referat!

Reservoir Cross Country

Homoerotic teenagers who take their shirts off to run with their teachers (or coach). Often like to pee together, calling it a "Group Pee." In the morning, they shower together; at night, they eat pasta at a big round table.

The boys like to wear tiny shorts and touch each other. They have a love child from North Carolina named Mansa.

The girls are really flexible. One of them is in a relationship with an older rich man. One of them likes a River Hill boy. All of them could get their coach fired.

WARNING: There are multiple runners with hyperhidrosis on the team.
A.
