Description
During the last years of Jackson's presidency, the economy flourished. The national debt was paid in full, industry and agriculture boomed. But when Martin Van Buren assumed the presidency, he inherited an economic disaster. The divide between rich and poor was growing and people were starting to lose their patience. The country was so on edge that the threat of increase in the price of flour caused riots in Manhattan. How this happened and more, in today's episode.Support us by supporting our sponsors:Zip Recruiter - Get a free trial and learn how to hire smarter when you visit them at ZipRecruiter.com/TellersRing - Save $150 on a Ring of Security kit when you visit them at Ring.com/TELLERSStamps.com - To get a 4-week trial PLUS postage AND a digital scale without long-term commitments, go to Stamps.com, click on the Microphone at the top of the homepage and type in TELLERS
