Answer 1

I studied the Great Depression last year. It affected people's lives in America in a VERY negative way. Many people lost their jobs(colossal unemployment) and ultimately their incomes, many became homeless and had no where to live. Drop in production and prices ( drop in demand for goods and share prices continued to fall) Many lost their faith in the banking system. Foreign trade declined, agricultural production also declined and many farms were abandoned. Suicide rates increased as conditions became unbearable..........answer you q???
