Historical Example of Supply and Demand

The Great Depression happened because the stock market in the United States dropped dramatically. A major calculate in bringing about the depression was a direct result of supply and demand. Supply and demand rely on each other and should be equal in a stable economy. Too much supply demand drops, demand goes up supply should go up to meet it. in that location was a large overage of products that the U. S. people could not consume. The overage happened because a technological advance changed how they produced goods. They were able to produce products more(prenominal) efficiently, however they did not add employees wages.Therefore, people could not afford to buy the amounts of products that were being produced. This was a direct result. There was no equilibrium. When there was an overage of products there were less demands for laborers because they could not so far sell the products that they had let alone produce more. The employers could have increased the employees wages to he lp the situation. This would not have completely fixed the problem. The industries would be forced by the law of supply and demand to drop their level of output to compensate in their loss of overall profit.Now there was less work, overage of products, and a failing economy. The Great Depression came to an end when the U. S. started making war goods for Britain. This created many jobs for U. S. citizens. This allowed people to earn money and begin spending again. President Roosevelt also had an encroachment on the recovery of the Great Depression. He made new policies, and changed how things in the economy went.
