The crash of the stock market mainly hurt rich people. Everyone else was hurt because they kept their money in banks, and the banks consequently went under after wall street crashed. Were people stupid to keep their money in the bank? Even if they kept their savings spread across 5 different banks, they all probably failed. My family has a history of owning land. My family (great grandparents) made out pretty well during the depression.

You can't be serious, the stock market crash, the direct result of republican policies hurt mostly the middle class who saved for many years a nest egg. The rich have lots of money, I know many, they never suffer, even when they complain and whine and act like the sky is falling.
