The rapid growth of industry in the United States resulted in a series of events that led to the Great Depression.  Because of the success of industry, much of the country’s wealth ended up in the hands of a few.  As a result, the average American did not have enough money to buy all the products that were being manufactured. The lack of consumers caused companies to produce less.  Needing fewer workers, they let old employees go and were unable to hire new ones.  Workers therefore had less and less money, causing industry to collapse even more.  As industries shut their plants and workers lost their jobs, banks across the country failed.

Projection is an unconscious process of seeing one’s own shortcomings in others.  For example, a greedy shop owner may cheat many of his customers, yet consider himself a pillar of the community and a good Christian. How does he justify to himself his greed and dishonesty? He believes that everyone who enters his store is bent on cheating him any way he or she can.
