The correct answer is C) it was nearly double the national rate.

<em>The unemployment rate among African Americans was nearly double the national rate compared to the national unemployment rate during the Great Depression.</em>

After the crash of the United States stock market in October 1929, the country started one of the worst economic periods in its history. Thousands of people lost their jobs, hundreds of companies disappeared, and banks went into bankruptcy. This period was known as the Great Depression. The US Great Depression affected other countries during those years and the situation did not improve until President Franklin D. Roosevelt "New Deal" programs. And the unemployment rate among African Americans was nearly double the national rate compared to the national unemployment rate during the Great Depression.

First of all, there are many different types of banks. There are central banks, investment banks, and a wide variety of multinational corporations that have financial and banking services that are integrated into the global monetary and economic system that defies a single human's comprehension and understanding.

The specific type of bank that the politician is referring to is a depository institution or thrift that is involved with taking in deposits and issuing withdrawals of money. This is community and retail banking, and bank robbers target these institutions as they serve as a point of entry into the global financial, monetary system, and it holds banknotes that robbers want to steal. These people are really not interested in taxation levels set by government. They are much more interested in the banknotes that are held by retail banks.

The politician is not making an effective argument because a citizen is concerned about their checking and savings accounts which are not affected by the theft of banknotes.
