You used the word famine earlier in this tiresome little thread.
WalterBright: "The US was the first country to eliminate the specter of famine around 1800. Thanks to free markets."
It's delusional to argue that The Dust Bowl was a time of cheap and abundant food. As far as I can tell, that's your claim, but I'm not interested in discussing this further with you.
- WalterBright 3y ago> You used the word famine earlier I used it correctly, it comes from Eugene Weber's "The Western Tradition", cited earlier. > It's delusional to argue that The Dust Bowl was a time of cheap and abundant food I cited it. You've found no cites for famine.

First google search result for dust bowl famine. Government websites explicitly mention “famine”. Is the Library of Congress a good enough source for you?
