 =Justifing Right from Wrong =

**Many people judge right form wrong in a selfish way and think what they're doing is right because it benefits them and unkowningly harms others .** The big businesses were unable to judge right from wrong because they would take advantage of the lower people like the farmers and migrants. The big businessess had no human decency and would take advantage of despertness of people lower than them for profit. The locals and the "Okies" both were struggling to bring the bread to the table. Both groups were willing to take lower and lower wages in order to have a job. The businesses used this to their advantage by continuing to lower wages and raise the prices for their products. They made it so that they were the only ones who had a chance to succed in the system. They were not judging what was right from wrong; they were just creating the best situation for themselves.

Although the farmers were also affected by that situation, they took their anger out on the migrants coming to their land. The farmers were in such a despret situation that they didn't correctly judge what was right from wrong. They were worring about protecting their land and their jobs that they didn't taking into consideration the "okies" that were going throught the same thing. The locals from California believed it was wrong for the "Okies" to come into their land and take their jobs." These goddamned Okies are dirty and ignorant. They're degenerate, sexual maniacs. These goddamned Okies are theives. They'll steal anything. They've got no sense of property rights."(283). They believed this was the right thing to do because it would help themselves in this despret situation.
