I now wished for the last friend, death, to relieve me; but soon, to my grief, two of the white men offered me eatables [food]; and on my refusing to eat, one of them held me fast by the hands, and laid me across I think the windlass [a part of the ship], and tied my feet, while the other flogged [beaten or whipped] me severely.

What was the economic effect of the Great Depression on America’s farmers?
KiRa [710]
Farmers were probably the hardest hit group of people during the Great Depression. They were already having a tough time from the 1920's because during WWl, they had been making record numbers of crops that were being sent over seas, but once the war ended they ended up with a surplus which dropped the price of wheat and farmers could hardly make a living. Farmers had also bought tractors and farm equipment with an installment plan, which means they buy now and pay later. This caused many farmers to go into debt because once the depression hit they no longer could afford to pay them off. To make matters worse, unsafe farming practices, like not rotating crops, cause the top soil to blow off and huge dust storms, called the Dust Bowl occurred making life miserable for farmers and their families.

What does the welfare of a country depend upon
slamgirl [31]

The welfare of a country depends on various factors, including access to education, health, the right to security, low unemployment rates among others.

There are different indicators created in order to effectively measure welfare in a country. The GDP (Gross Domestic Product) per capita, shows the amount of income after it has been evenly distributed among all of the citizens of a country. This, however, does not assess the issue of determining if, in fact, the income is being distributed equally. For this purpose, there is another indicator called the GINI index, which measures the actual equality in the distribution of income among the citizens of a country.
