Fascinating how certain myopic individuals always want to see the government only as the beneficent savior in times such as the “Dirty Thirties” while ignoring how the government was complicit in promoting with land settlement programs the intensive, poor agricultural methods it latter claimed to eschew, e.g.:
The Homestead Act of 1862
The Pacific Railway Act of 1862
The Dawes Severalty Act of 1887
The Indian Appropriations Bill of 1889

Randy, you're going to the back row where I can keep an eye on you and you won't disturb the class. You can come back to the front when you grow up some.

JDB, quit sampling your handle's namesake. You have to be an adult in order to play the "adult card." Besides, I haven't taken a class in "Problems in Sanitary Engineering at Kommunity Kolleges" in several years.

Global warming caused the dust bowl, the worst weather related catastrophic event the World has ever known ( lives affected, economic hardship ) i say it had to be from all those cars and coal plants !

When I went through High School back in the 60's, we were taught that The Dust Bowl was created by a combination of poor farming methods and a untimely drought.
I have not seen the Ken Burns Documentary as of yet, (I am a big fan of his), but did he present anything that contradicts the two reasons I mentioned?

Jackie, the dust bowl was caused by global warming, just like all the other weather related events ... This is caused from carbon emissions eating up the ozone layers,its all man made, cars that use gas, coal plants, etc. I dont know what they were teaching in the 60s but it musta been wrong.. If you would buy a Chevy Volt it would help alot.

we are forgetting the cow farts but I do not know when the feedlots really got started, guess google would help answer this, I was right
from Wiki history
The beef industry today is highly dependent upon technology, but this has not always been true. In the early 20th century, feeder operations were separate from all other related operations and feedlots were non-existent.[7] They appeared in the 1950s and 1960s as a result of hybrid grains and irrigation techniques; the ensuing larger grain crops led to abundant grain harvests. However, the first known feedlot was designed and built by Gustavus Swift in 1876 on the south side of Chicago. [8] It was suddenly possible to feed large amounts of heads of cattle in one location and so, to cut transportation costs, grain farm and feedlot locations merged. Cattle were no longer sent from all across the southern states to places like California, where large slaughter houses were located. In the 1980s, meat packers followed the path of feedlots and are now located close by them as well.

Im pissed, the nut jobs that think every weather event in the last 100 years is caused by the ozone layer havnt jumped on here to cuss me !
I guess its human nature to make a crisis outa everything, then you have an excuse to be proactive. The planet savers only want to punish the USA, the rest of the World seems off the hook. Maybe they dont have as many cattle?
