During the depression people went from farms all over the USA working to get the crops in! That’s where they are sending us back to those days!

“The Grapes of Wrath” John Steinbeck
Now that really is my favorite movie. It reminds of family, they looked just like that in movie.
That was in the 60's. They looked like that, poor hardworking people.
The book was written and portrayed conditions in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The film 🎥 was made in 1940.
The book was published in 1939.
Dad was born in 1930.
He must have experienced and seen some unforgettable things? Mine was born in 1935 and his folks moved a lot chasing down work and a better life. They ended up settling in Los Angeles and WWII put everyone to work one way or another.
Mine was born in 1928. My mom was born in 1933. Their parents were sharecroppers in South Carolina. They saw some things for sure. People of means in that area despised poor white people just as much as poor black people -- if not more. They thought poor white people were unmotivated and lazy.
My dad told me he had to quit school, eighth grade his last, cause his family had to work. They followed the wheat harvest. His dad was a bootlegger when not following harvest.
I don’t think that was uncommon during hard times 😢? It was a very hard time and life. I wonder if we’re going to end up hitting the old road again like back in the 1930s?
Woody Guthrie wrote the History of the Depression in his lyrics. I hope the master recordings, collected by the Smithsonian are safe. They are the wokest of woke. He really will destroy the art, literature, music, and culture he doesn't like. Hitler did exactly the same thing.

My mother's family survived the Depression bootlegging. Quite a few did. A 12 year old great uncle was a "bag boy" for the East Chicago mob. That was the Serbian side. The Belgian side is much less interesting.
Yep the dust bowl of Kansas and Oklahoma! A lot of people lost their homes or ranches! They had to pack everything up and travel to find work! They became migrants!
And that's where he wants to take us. He wants to take us back in time before civil rights, women's rights, climate interventions--you know the list.
Yes it’s about control and the only people who had control at that time was wealthy corporations! William Boeing, Walter Chrysler, Joseph Kennedy Sr,Paul Getty,Mae West,Charles Clinton Spaulding,Michael Cullen,Howard Hughes! This is who survived the Great Depression!
I don't want to repeat that, even though I wasn't there the first time.
No we don’t! Hunger and homelessness is not good
Back to the future?
That's what TACO47 calls making America great again. Going back to the depression days.
Most people cannot endure a hard days work. Most people can’t even endure just sitting outside all day much less working in it lol
It will rot, most people are too fucking lazy.
Nobody should have to work their guts out from any country to earn a liveable wage
