I watched Grapes of Wrath recently. It was a great movie. I don't know if Steinbeck wrote the screenplay or if it was some fellow traveler. But if somebody was looking up from the bottom of the Depression it may have seemed that government was the answer. We know better of course--but we can see how others may have arrived at that conclusion.
