The following statements are all causes of the Great Depression in America:

1) Overgrazing and drought lead to the loss of topsoil that resulted in the Dust Bowl. This environmental disaster ruined the lives/farms of thousands of American citizens in states like Oklahoma.

2) Bank runs were caused by people panicking to withdraw their money, which led to thousands of banks failing. These bank failures resulted in hundreds of thousands of Americans losing their life savings since their accounts were not insured by any agency.

3) "Buying on margin" was considered a risk free way of playing the stock market since the broker guaranteed your investment. This was completely false and when the Stock Market Crash of 1929 hit, this resulted in millions of dollars lost by American citizens. Some of these citizens invested their life savings in the stock market, only to lose it all in a matter of a few days.
