    The main reason why the United States went from the prosperous "Roaring 20s" to the Great Depression was because people speculated too heavily in the stock market, causing values to be greatly inflated which led to a "bubble" that burst in 1929--leading to the Depression. Hoover was far too "hands off" and refused to inject the government into the economy, which is exactly what FDR did.
