Explanation:

In this text, the author tries to find the causes of the Great Depression in the post-WWI period. He tells us that Harding was a passive president who was scared of taking any significant action in any way. Coolidge was similarly convinced that the federal government should intervene in the economy as little as possible. The consequence of such actions was that Hoover, who did believe that the economy should be controlled in some way, was unable to undo the damage of deregulation once he came to power.
