So what is it? Don't like the right or don't like the left? Remember kids: Hitler has a right-winger, Gandhi was a left-winger. It's the easy way to remember, you see, the original (peaceful) swastika went left, but Hitler's went right instead, so you've got pictorial help too! ...Hey, he did get the world out of a depression, maybe Japan needs a right-winger...

So when the US hits rock bottom, these export-driven economies followed along with other economies that had trading ties with them.
