MW, many economists said the New Deal made it worse. This was discussed in length during 2008-9. You can read.

remember, before they got to the New Deal they had to go thru experiences like having to slaughter any edible city zoo animals, meat to distribute to the starving ppl

If Democrat Governors were not purposely keeping things closed then many of these people would get their job back. Restaurants, schools, special events like sports and concerts etc. If you are afraid of the virus then you don't have to go to any of these places or events.
