Describe American life during the Great Depression

Four years after 1929 stock market crash, during the bleakest point of the Great Depression, about a quarter of the U.S. workforce was unemployed. Those that were lucky enough to have steady employment often saw their wages cut or their hours reduced to part-time.

That was life back then, NOW it seems like we're living in the great depression too. Not to scare anybody!

Hope this helps though :)
