It can't be all that bad, can it?

The crash of '29 saw a rash of suicides among investors and bankers and you haven't seen one single story about an investor or a banker taking his/her own life.

No, instead you see sad stories about people killing their entire families, or that 90 year old woman who tried to shoot herself in the home she was about to lose. You see stories about regular people who have nothing left to lose except their lives, which they chose to take rather than go on and have society view them as a failure.

And the people who contributed to the ruin of those lives?
