“You may have had to do without, but you were able to buy groceries.”
In my household with my single mom we couldn’t always buy food, sometimes it was rice or boiled cornmeal, sometimes it was nothing, my sharecropper mother says that she had more food during the depression.
Yes, my grandparents used to give my Mom 3 bags of bread, lunchmeat, and cooked meats every week. My family never went hungry, but it was because of our grandparents, who were Itlaian imigrants, and saw this country as the best opportunity in the world. My family came to this country in the 50’s on the Andrea Doria with nothing and became land owners in a generation. I don’t speak Italian, I have never protested my government and I proudly fly our flag year-round. Most of the garbage who come here today are useless parasites.They are turning the USA into Brazil.
