“today, paniced investors ordered their brokers to sell at whatever the price in the stock market crashed.”
(in october, 1929, an over-valued stock market, with many owning shares purchased “on margin” or with borrowed money, crashed. numerous men committed suicide rather than face bankruptcy. in response, the u.s. government imposed stringent rules on the buying and selling of stocks. these make it less likely that a similar catastrophic devaluation could occur now. the insurance companies began to exclude suicide as an acceptable cause of death for life insurance policies and/or wrote in a two year waiting period before benefits could be paid.)

(vice presidential candidate)
“senator, you re no jack kennedy.” – senator lloyd bentsen of texas
(in the televised debate between vice presidential candidates, it is hard to imagine how any speech writer could have made such a disastrous blunder. for the young, inexperienced, not-to-bright quayle to refer to the revered former president so casually as “jack” was not appropriate. comparing himself to kennedy was beyond laughable.)
