Ok. Here’s a brief description of the presidents from the beginning of the depression until the beginning of World War two.
So, at the beginning of the depression in October of 1929, you got Hoover in office. At first, everyone thinks its just another depression, that happen every so often. At that point, no one had any idea how bad it would be. Hoover believed in the concept of “rugged individualism” where basically, he disagreed with socialism/communism (more basically, he was conservative). So he started out with no special programs, as any president would have done (including FDR) in his position. He started out with encouragement towards business management, then when everyone started to realize it was bad, he started to move towards more drastic measures, such as his lowering of mortgage rates and the government buying crops from farmers. The only time that people realized the actual issue the nation was facing was at the end of his presidency, which is when he came up with his plan that he would have used had he been reelected. Well, he wasn’t. So, after FDR took office, he went to him and showed him his plan. FDR went and used it as if it were his own idea. His “New Deal” was an edited (edited for the worse, more towards socialism) version of the plan that Hoover had shown him. The thing is, the New Deal didn’t do much. It was somewhat successful in helping the economy, but not all that much more than that of what Hoover had done (that is if you consider that FDR could have done a lot more in office because he had been in during the depression for much longer, so you have to look at how much they did proportional to how long they were in). His New Deal was all good and fine, but if you look at the charts (trust me, I have), you see that World War Two was the major contributor to the economic recovery. You see that starting in 1942, there was a dramatic increase in GDP (Gross Domestic Product). This was completely a result of America’s well known success at times of war. The American economy always performs better and more efficiently during times of war, as it did in WWII and took us out of The Great Depression.
Ok, so this is basically FDR's contribution: He didn’t do all that much, WWII did all everyone though that he did. All the good he did do, was because Hoover told him what to do.
Thank you for taking the time to read what took me a somewhat considerable amount of time, long enough for me to do it in Word so I wouldn’t lose it by accident if some stupid shit happened.

depression
Well that took a long time to write, a longer amount of time than how long FDR had to think about whether or not he should take Hoover's idea.
Take a look at some of my other definitions biatch.

Tastyhamsandwich was really depress about loving the girl so much, yet not being able to be with her...

it’s a lot like love. everyone around you seems to be under it’s spell. it looks better than it is. the way people describe it never makes sense to people who don’t have it. not everyone who has it has it in the same way. it varies for everyone. people like to brag and say they have it when they really have no idea what it even is. and of course it’s thrown around way too lightly in conversation.
“dude my depression is really fucking me up this month”
“ah that sad movie gives me depression!”
“no you’re just sad. don’t throw serious words around trying to sound cool”
“my depression feels like i’m in a blocked off cave that i know is there but i keep pretending isn’t.”
“oof, mines like being in the deepest part of the ocean and feeling comfortable but still worthless, but when you’re out of the ocean and look down at it, it’s the most terrifying thing you’ve ever seen and u can’t believe u used to be there and u didn’t hate it at the moment.”

depression is... how should i put it.. it is basically impossible to understand it unless you have been through it yourself. but depression is like getting stabbed, every time something bad happens you feel as though you have been stabbed, and as those stab wounds build up you no longer have the energy to even try to take care of them... eventually most of them get infected and begin slowly killing you, eventually everyone around you gives up trying to help for the stab wounds have become to infected anyway. there is no healing from that. and even if there is it take more effort then most are able to input.
