Correct answer:
A. saw their incomes decline and debt grow.
Real wages for urban workers increased by approximately 20% during the 1920s. But the prosperity of this decade was not for everyone, more than half of the country lived in rural areas, depending on agriculture for a living.
The First World War interrupted agricultural production and the prices of products fell at a catastrophic rate. Prices such as wheat and cotton fell by more than three quarters of their price. Farmers who had taken loans to improve the planting process could not make the payments due to the decrease in their income.
