The essential criticism of the Agriculture Adjustment Act (AAA) was that the government was destroying food at a time when citizens were starving. This was seen as wasteful and unethical, especially during the Great Depression when many Americans were struggling to put food on the table. Critics argued that it was wrong for the government to destroy perfectly good crops while people went hungry.
