There was a a lot to fear in the great depression. One of the main reasons is that people were afraid of losing there jobs. Many people were losing their jobs because their business didn't have enough money to support them. Then the people who were laid wouldn't have enough money to support their families.

Furthermore, there was a vicious cycle of overproduction and job layoffs. Since most companies overproduced, they had to lay off employees, causing unemployment rates to go up. When these went up, there was still overproduction as a result, henceforth, leading to even more layoffs... this cycle continued.
