Quick takeaways

Contrary to popular belief, the 19th century was a period of significant progress and improved well-being for ordinary individuals.

The Great Depression was caused by a failure of government, particularly the mismanagement of monetary policy by the Federal Reserve.

Government programs are often driven by propaganda campaigns and the interests of special interest groups, rather than genuine public demand.
