第二章应该做些什么如果对过去进行全面的反思,那么很容易发现1929年注定是令人难忘的一年。这倒不是因为胡佛先生不久就当选为美国总统,并对市场怀有敌意,何况他对市场的抵触情绪至少有一部分是事后才发展起来的;也不是因为贤明人士断言萧条会被推迟。无论是聪明人还是愚笨的人,当时或现在谁都不知道萧条会在什么时候或推迟到什么时候发生。 What should be done in Chapter 2 If you fully reflect on the past, it is easy to see that 1929 is destined to be an unforgettable year. This is not because Mr. Hoover was soon elected as the president of the United States and hostile to the market. Moreover, at least part of his resistance to the market was developed after the fact. Nor is it because the wise men assert that the depression will be postponed. No one, smart or stupid, knew when or at what point the recession would occur or was delayed.
