Where were soup kitchens in the Great Depression?
They were also called “bread lines”. It was just the beginning of the Great Depression and many men were out of work. While Al Capone did indeed feed many of the poor there was always a method to his madness and while he gained popularity and trust from the unemployed he also started Unions which gave work to many of the men in need, yet collected large sums of money which were often used in under-handed dealings. (Jimmy Hoffa) started out well, but soon got caught up in the mob. To this day they don’t know where his body is located and never will find it.
