Great Depression truths

[sleeplessdwarf]

I remember AJ talking about 7 million deaths in the US during the great depression. Some papers I have looked at do not show this to be accurate, and some in fact show that population steadily increased during those years. Sadly, I stumbled across a "white power" site that is also having this debate and ofc there they say that 34 million white were killed during the 30s and 40s. They discount the number of jews that died and speak more of the Ukrains that died during the Ukrainian Holodomor. I know why both of these groups distort the facts but I am looking for an accurate account of american deaths during the depression. This being my first time in a white power forum, are they often part of CTs? They went into great detail about FDR being a communist and how tons of food was destroyed to make the prices double. I know they try to discredit the number of jews killed in WWII but I always thought that was just propaganda.

Hello,
I think you will find the data you are looking for here. There is a lot to wade through, but good luck.

The US population in 1930 was 120 million (rounded). If people lived to be 60 years then (again rounded), I would expect that 120 million / 60 = 2 million people would have died each year or 10 million over a five year period.

Here are the historical population figures for Australia. (http://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/DetailsPage/3105.0.65.0012008?OpenDocument)

This may not help you directly, but Australia faced a depression at the same time as well but did not see a spike in deaths. You could ask them to explain why Australia did not experience this mysterious spike in deaths.

Yep around 60 million people die each year. I saw one CT claim (about two years ago) that bushco was responsible for half a billion lives being lost during his presidency. A bit of an over estimate but around 400,000,000 did die during that period.

Using natural deaths you can make any period, person or ideology look pretty bad to thou who don't realize the context.

Because it wasn't being run by the CommieJewNaziNWO, duh!


What other answer wold you expect?

Thanks. I will check out those links. I should have been more clear in my question. The 7 million I stated supposedly died of starvation. With the implication of FDR being a communist who had the food destroyed to please the agriculture lobbyist. Sorry for not making that more clear. This is the part I do not believe, not the actual number of total deaths combined.

[gtc]

I understand.

I think they have decided that every person who died during the depression, died of starvation. That or they are making it up out of whole cloth because it is 1 million more than the Holocaust.

Think of all the evidence that exists about the Holocaust and that was under the most or one of the most oppressive regimes that ever existed. How would the American government have been able to stop those deaths from being reported or appearing in news reels, print or radio or being mentioned by the various opposition parties? Why didn't the extreme right say anything at the time - the Dearborn Independent or Father Coughlin's National Union for Social Justice and the Christian Faith or Rev. Winrod's Defenders of the Christian Faith.

Why didn't the insurance companies or the funeral industry or the lawyers who dealt with wills notice? How did American businesses not note that 7 million of their customers had died?

I doubt the people spreading this rumour know or care.

Australia had game and a rabbit problem, it fed most of the swagies as they nearly all had a single shot break down .22. Plus a lot of farms. Also in vast areas people could die and not be found or counted.

So, either Americans didn't own any guns, or there was no game to live off during the depression?

Well, what about the rumors that they actually ate their
guns and survived the great depression due to this fact? :p

[gtc]

That is a misspelling. They ate their grans. That is their grandmothers.

Old depression saying "We eat all the rabbits yar can, but the ones that are too canny(milky does) you can't eat can ya. Guess you have to be an Australian bushie to see the humour. I ate many good meals of rabbit as a kid, constant battle to shoot trap poison as many as possible until mixo was released in the early 50 ies and 1080 baiting. This depression we won't have the wild game to feed the mobs.
