These experiences is why I shake my head whenever anyone says " our country has never been like this ", no it's been worse multiple times. People have been marching on Washington because of problems since it existence.
Farmers, not celeberties are the true American backbone and heros
Exactly.
The movie deliverance taught us that!
Farmers of paddy are almost extinct in several parts
Everyone should see this.
The black eye to Capitalist reality never came.
Work,earn just enough… keep working for the man.
Keep working to keep the house etc…
Excellent historic open , truthful documentary . The battle of the haves and have not still continues . MacArthur should have been court martialed !
The excuse of I was just following orders was not discredited until 1948
No worries. Truman gave Mac just what he deserved. Read up on the Korean War.
The same MacArthur that said "I shall return" as he abandoned his troops in the Philippines to torture and death. Then was treated as a hero when he finally returned. Too late!
Great documentary. Thanks for posting
People are busy watching “house wives of Atlanta” ,”voice” or some other crap on TV instead of the real reality program like this.
These PBS American experience shows are some of the best ever .
The Great Depression was Hoover's covid.
I've been watching this series a lot lately and the overwhelming theme seems to be that America's actions have contradicted it's words since the very beginning.
History does repeat itself. Just with variations...
Hoover was a fool. "Hoovernomics" was before "Reaganomics", but still "trickle-down"...
Yes sir! You are very sharp, sir. Cheers to you!
And yet Republicans keep recycling this horse manure as a viable economic solution.

I’m quite sure that when Hoover gave MacArthur the order to not cross that bridge he winked at him meaning go ahead
People can’t imagine it because we’ve experienced a century of relative greatness but… this is where we’re headed 😕 $30 trillion in debt… social security and other govt entitlements are totally unsustainable.
Henry Hampton, Executive Producer for this and many American Experience documentaries, was the founder and owner of Blackside. He'd later make two groundbreaking documentary series, Eyes on the Prize and The Great Depression. Both hold up well to this day. Eyes on the Prize - the story of the civil rights movement in America - remains astonishly fresh and relevant. But, as PBS funding was threatened by Congress, it turned to Ken Burns. And, although most Burns' docs are too bland and too long, some were indeed excellent, such as The Civil War.

Bonus Marchers, the most honorable force the US ever raised. All they wanted what was they were owed, just a little early. Starvation doesn"t wait. Smedley Butler was the hero and those regular Army bastards werre the zeros. These lads answered the call and these war profiteering bastards couldn't choke up the promise.

Help himself
And pay the GOP for the honor to die
They would do that to homeless today if they could get away with it
The war ended the depression not the new deal
The Republicans in 1932 sound just like the Republicans of 2023. Bless their cold dead hearts.
Yeah but remember the flip side was this was the era of the Jim Crowe Democrats who weren't about to let governments help anyone but white people.
Every time I get a twinge of nostalgia, it's good to watch something as awful as this. PBS shoveled these out for my whole life.
You do a little microwaved Sandburg: "from the plains and from the valleys they came on little cat's feet". Blues guitar in the background. Jason the Sonorous. Capitalism: heartless & cruel. FDR who never worked a day in his life and presided over 3 more cashes: our heroic savior.
Anything to make American business and American institutions look as bad as possible. In the meantime there was an explosion of innovation going on around these idiots and no attention was ever paid. Read Gilder's Microcosm from about the same year as this documentary.
Liberals were having a rough year in 91. They failed to demoralize the troops in Desert Storm as they had in Vietnam. Unilateral disarmament hadn't been sold. The Soviet Union was about to fall. I can almost empathize.
Good job Mc Auther, Eisenhower and Patton. Great way to take of your war buddies. Smedley Butler called war a racket but he never came up with a name for these sorry SOB's. Imagine Washington DC not knowing what was going on in the country. Not much changed in a hundred years. That's was a plan, let the rich look out for the poor. Always worked in the past, right?
@32:45 “Congress had promised to pay [the WW1] bonus in 1945”….? 🤔
A dollar a day for each day of service.
Like social security wait until you’re 70 a lot of people who pay in their entire lives die before then can draw any
@@mikebardo3403 I'm guessing that was their hope. Even though they didn't see into the future that the Great War would have a part 2. But, it boggles the mind of how many years they were expected them too wait. Nearly 13 years!!!!
Gov't hoping they would die off before the bonus was due.
