Oh I couldn't disagree more with that! The Emergency Banking Act itself is universally recognized as a major success. Sure it takes "time" a decade or longer in some cases, but economic crisis will not heal itself. War, is not a good option to "stimulate" the economy. Which was doing just fine, by the way, when WWII broke out. I suspect that was a big reason America was reluctant to get involved. We had our's, were doing just fine, recovering from a nasty bout of economic upheaval. NOW you want us to go war??!!!?? Of course Pearl Harbor left us no choice in that regard...
