Except that's not what happened jackson, unemployment fell, so obviously any effect from wage inflation towards unemployment was negligible at best, government intervention was a much bigger positive than negative.

Comapnies that try to artificailly increase prices beyond what the market will accept will not survive, as I said its demand driven, look at Sony which is having more and more trouble because they bucked what the market would accept, so your assumption that its an important thing to go after fails on that simple point.

Yes you're exactly right hat government intervention lowered the unemployment rate, kind of defeats your argument that government intervention prolonged the Depression then doesn't it?

Sorry but its reaching to say that the recovery would have been quicker, since it was only when the US actually entered the war that the economy was brought out of the Depression, since our date of entry would not have changed, recovery would have been on the same schedule

Also citing right wing whack job economists isn't going to sway me to your argument, these are the guys who argued that the new deal didn't do anything for unemployment, when it obviously did
