Well sowell blames the depression first on hoover for doing the very progressive thing of interfering with the economy and he made things worse. Sowell also states that all of FDR's policies made everything worse as well.
Similarly, sowell believes democrats caused the 08 recession via affirmative action housing policies and that Obama put the economy into a a coma until trump got things back in order. Sowell is an economist by trade, by the way.
We can both agree the economy thrived under Clinton, and I would add bush senior. Clinton was a rarity for being relatively fiscally responsible.
