Yes, I know this question has been done to death, but I want to create a new spin on it. The previous question are "How much longer does the depression last?" or "How much shorter is the depression?" depending on one's political leanings.
Let's say that whoever is in power, be it Roosevelt, Hoover, or whoever would replace Roosevelt as the Democrat nominee doesn't implement any kind of "meaningful" government assistance for the economy, what would the effect be for the social cohesion of the U.S.?
Mind you this is a time when Russia not too recently was taken over by the Communist Bolsheviks, and only a year after the U.S. election, Germany was usurped by the Nazis.
With no government assistance, could Fascist or Communist sympathies have festered even more than they did in the OTL?
