A "traditional" "great depression" combines high unemployment, negative inflation, and a stock market slump.
My fear/suspicion is that we're not in the middle of that. This link captures my notion that the stock market slump is just a prelude to serious inflation. The counterargument would be that sucking $20 trillion+ out of the economy through stock market and housing losses would more than compensate for any inflationary pressure from a $2 trillion rescue plan.
