Because the United States has had the world’s biggest economy going back all the way arguably to the 1890s, that means this video kind of also went over every recession and depression in WORLD history since then. “But Mr. Beat, what about the Panic of 1792??” You know what, FORGET the Panic of 1792! (gasp!) And forget Panic at the Disco! They were an overrated band anyway. But seriously, obviously historians say there were more recessions than I mentioned.
