    They felt the same way about the Oakies fleeing the Dust Bowl 30s. People with money hating people without. Beautiful rendition of this song. Thanks

      You've hit the nail on the head; can it be true that people who have, actually resent those that that have little? Your debate over medicare unearthed the sad truth that the concept of sharing - which is what a state funded system amounts to - is regarded with barely concealed contempt and resentment, fueled by trouble making politicians.

      Marcus Clements Yes, it seems that the poor have always been treated with contempt. Victorian Capitalism spread across the globe arrogantly, its love of its own economic power blinding it to the plight of the dispossessed. The same applies to the Great American Robber Barons, whose legacy still prevails to this day.

    So many of Woody's songs are as appropriate today as the day they were written, and that's sad.

      I'm grateful for the work he left us. Everyone should study 100 Years of Woody Guthrie. Many just don't know about America. He reminds us.

    History repeats unfortunately and the words of Woody Guthrie resonates even stronger today !

      Certainly does..wish Woody were still with us; and Pete Seeger..

    • @beechnut79
      @beechnut79 Před 4 lety

      There does seem sort of poetic in a way that Pete Seeger didn’t live long enough to see Trump become President.

    Discovered Ani DiFranco following Ry Cooder on You Tube. Wow, her voice is amazing...reminds me of Joan Baez.

      Thank you for talking about the beauty of the song and not politics. :)

    • @rebecca1894
      @rebecca1894 Před 6 lety +7

      This is a political song, the whole issue is about politics and greed!

    • @ThisbeandPyramus
      @ThisbeandPyramus Před 5 lety

      She became famous with a ballad "I Am Not a Pretty Girl" from the mid- nineties. Sort of post-punk.

      It is not possible to separate the politics from the song.

      Dolly Parton is also among the artists who have covered this song. On her 9 to 5 album.

    What is the economics of Jesus
    1 Timothy 5:18: "For the Scripture says, "Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain," and, "The worker is worthy of his wages."
    If this sounds like Marxism, you may agree with Trump that wages are too high.
    It's a characteristic of oligarchy capitalism of the Havard Business Model and Reaganomics.

    I recently became aware that a picture is worth a thousand words, to me anyway.
    First: I knew Jerry Lee Lewis married a 13-year-old cousin, but never realized what it was until I saw a film of him being interviewed when they came back from England. While he was talking, she was standing beside him, and like a child she was looking all around. twirling her hair, chewing gum.
    Second: I knew it was tough almost horrifying of those Latino refugees. But today I saw them riding on a freight train, and a man had a 2-4-year-old boy in his arms, and he changed cars, while the train was moving at traveling speed, with the baby in his arms. I have done that a few times as a youngster and it was frightening as it was extremely dangerous. I can't get it out of my mind!
    Then I remembered Trump dehumanizing them: "they are not human", worse than animals, they are murders, rapist, predators," "invaders, aliens, killer," "criminal" and "animal, "This is an invasion." But this was not the worst, the worst is that so many Americans, especially Fundamentalist Christians.
    For what it is worth I’ve been around quiet few Mexicans and find them to be extremely hard working, family loving, decent folks.
    I made Woodie Guthrie poem/song, Deportee so real. Guthrie was inspired to write the song by what he considered the racist mistreatment of the passengers before and after the accident.
    Deportee
    (aka. "Plane Wreck at Los Gatos")
    Words by Woody Guthrie, Music by Martin Hoffman
    The crops are all in and the peaches are rott'ning,
    The oranges piled in their creosote dumps;
    They're flying 'em back to the Mexican border
    To pay all their money to wade back again
    Goodbye to my Juan, goodbye, Rosalita,
    Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria;
    You won't have your names when you ride the big airplane,
    All they will call you will be "deportees"
    My father's own father, he waded that river,
    They took all the money he made in his life;
    My brothers and sisters come working the fruit trees,
    And they rode the truck till they took down and died.
    Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted,
    Our work contract's out and we have to move on;
    Six hundred miles to that Mexican border,
    They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves.
    We died in your hills, we died in your deserts,
    We died in your valleys and died on your plains.
    We died 'neath your trees and we died in your bushes,
    Both sides of the river, we died just the same.
    The sky plane caught fire over Los Gatos Canyon,
    A fireball of lightning, and shook all our hills,
    Who are all these friends, all scattered like dry leaves?
    The radio says, "They are just deportees"
    Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards?
    Is this the best way we can grow our good fruit?
    To fall like dry leaves to rot on my topsoil
    And be called by no name except "deportees"?
    It’s actually traumatized me. It appears to me that WASP really are the most vicious animal know it is difficult problem, but by God they are human.
