Aye... and the Emperor of Terra Zetegenia is willing to bet 5,000 Aura that at least 90% of people who respond to this thread will have no idea what really caused the Great Depression.

SO whens the next one going to happen?

Or was John Keynes right and it's not going to happen ever again?

I think it's going to happen in 2015. Due to the aging Americans pulling out their retiring benefits. EPF so what not.
