Just wanted to toss in on the point of the fruit rotting in the fields. I just taught a unit on the Depression (which one?) to a set of high school kids, and read about the consternation of many when news came that in order to implement the first subsidy programs of the farm recovery acts the Feds bought and slaughtered several thousand pigs and couldn't distribute the meat fast enough so it got plowed under as fertilizer. How many of you out there were in line with me in the eighties for that government cheese?
