After Wwi, The United States Saw A Decline In Their Economic

After WWI, the United States saw a decline in their economic boom and by late 1910s they entered into a severe recession. This economic downfall was felt throughout the world as the majority of all nations attempted to recover from the aftermath of the war. After a few years of an economic downturn, the United States hit its stride in the 1920s as it entered another economic boom referred to as the â€Å"Roaring 20s†. This economic boom had such a tremendous impact that it is reported that the, â€Å"nation’s total wealth more than doubled between 1920 and 1929.† The Roaring 20s increased national wealth gave Americans more money to spend which sparked the birth of mass production; all across the nation citizens were purchasing the same goods. This†¦show more content†¦Many private companies and industries also adopted an anti-Mexican policy in their hiring practices.† On a local and state level, the Mexican people were able to feel the blatant a nd vocal aura of racism and exclusion. Quickly one can do an immediate inference and realize this was an unconstitutional act as someone was being kept devoid of employment due to his or her race. Therefore these policies were an unjustifiable extension of power by both the local and state government. One account in Boulder County on May 18, 1932 demonstrated the effort local government put into deporting Mexican families: WHEREAS, A number of Mexican families in Boulder County are unemployed, some of which are public charges and there being no prospect of them finding employment and it appears that all of the said families will become public charges of Boulder County, and WHEREAS, the Mexican Government has agreed to accept these families and take care of them if Boulder County will transport them to the Mexican border and the Railroad Company has agreed to transport said families for the sum of $8.00 for each full fare and $4.00 for each half fare. NOW THEREFORE, be it resol ved that there be and is hereby appropriated out of moneys not otherwise appropriated, in the fund for the support of the poor of Boulder County, the sum of $312.00 for the transportation of said families to the Mexican border.
