To be clear, you're requesting a great depression?

Can we just have the bit where speculators got wiped out?

Let's have more purchasing power WITHOUT a depression! BTW 1945 was just when WW2 was going to end, and during WW2 the US and Canadian economies were booming because they were far away from the fighting and everyone who wasn't fighting could get a job helping those that did. So people were working.
