Federal Reserve

THe instution that allowed a stock market crash, that was expected to be another recession to turn into a depression. Bywhich should of added more money into the economy to stimulate spending, growth and eventually decrease unemployment. Failing to do this, the money supply in the banks fell short of expections, which caused a run on the banks. Which then further worsened the crisis.
The Federal Reserve controls interest rates to loans given out to banks, in order to control the money supply.

roger federer

Put simply, the God of tennis. You can even see that out on the court he's not even trying, and still walks away with the match. He plays ping pong on the tennis court and will eventually win the French Open.

Chokeland Faders

The alter ego of the infamous Oakland Raides that always seem to Choke and Fade in the latter part of any football season
The Oakland Raiders started the season in first place at 4 and 0, but choked out half way through the season and faded to last place in the division.

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
