    (C) American businesses were imperishable.

    Explanation:

    The song "Brother, Can you Spare a Dime?" is one of the most famous songs about the Great Depression that came after the World War I. It talks of those workers and fighters who were made to fight fr their country but are abandoned after their services are no longer required. The composer jay Gorney intended this song as a way t remind people of these ex-servicemen and the abandoned people that are starving and struggling to make a living, even after the government's promise of a new and improved life after their services. The American Business being nonperishable was the belief before the Great Depression but now, that is all a farce. This song came to be viewed as the anthem for the unfulfilled dreams and shattered hopes of the American people.
