Has it been done before?
There is something to the claim that history repeats itself. I realize that people running these Iphones think if it hasn’t flashed on their screens in the last 30 seconds, it didn’t happen. In the period during WWI with Europe torn to pieces, American agriculture boomed and farmers were saying they would never have another poor day. In the 1920’s Europe came back into production, farm prices plummeted and a depression flowed through rural America while the cities enjoyed the roaring 20’s.
