Title couldn’t say it all.
“And money that might have gone to wages went for gas, for guns, for agents and spies, for blacklists, for drilling...
On the highways the people moved like ants and searched for work, for food...
And the anger began to ferment...”

Capitalist exploitation in America continue to consists in the forced appropriation by capitalists of the surplus value produced by workers.
Workers under capitalism are compelled by their lack of ownership of the means of production to sell their labor power to capitalists for less than the full value of the goods they produce.

The gov would rather spend money keeping us in line for the interests of the rich than to provide sustainable development.
The migration from the Oklahoma dust bowl was primarily from a combination of a multi year drought and a failure to use proper agricultural techniques for dry land farming. But, sure, blame capitalism.
You admit the capitalistic methods if production ie farming techniques are to blame but at the same time claim it has nothing to do with capitalism 🤣🤣
Susatainable development lol. Another meaningless left wing stupidity. Capitalistic methods of farming? lmao you turd icee. Why don't you read a fucking book just once in your life. The farmers who migrated from the east to the midwest were experienced farmers, using time tested methods ...for the east. When they went west for land they brought these methods with them, not understanding that different methods were needed for the west. Has nothing to do with capitalism you stupid asswipe, its sustenance living, still practiced in some shit hole countries, that aren't capitalist either.
