Most people didn't directly question the great chain of being but were more discrete. Philosphers wrote books about it trying to send messages. This became a serious a issue in the turn of the 15th to 16h century when books and resources became more available. More people became aware and started questioning The Great Chain of Being but no one revolted until later on. Most people are punished if they question the Great Chain of Being as they are acting on 'free will' instead of obeying the people above them. Back during those times, it was everyones 'fate' to follow it.

"The comapny had to clarify its chain-of-command policy."

What caused the lowest unemployment rate in US history?

I think it was The Great Depression. Trying to support the troops and everyone dying didn't help and the government eventually (almost) ran out of money, therefore creating a chain effect. From businesses losing funding from the government and then having to sack workers because they could not pay them. The Depression ended around when World War II happened, then everybody went to war and was able to bring in money. Other government ideas happened, like working and getting food coupons to get food.
