it is all true but this "Joe Doakes" should be Ransom E Olds.

Yeah, so true. I used to really enjoy those cartoons of that era. They always seemed to teach honorable moral values, as did the television programs in general. Just think about Andy Griffith, the Rifleman, My Three Sons, Bonanza, etc. I could go on and on and on....

Great nostalgic cartoon that is so true to what's going on.
More people should see it.

you can't say this cartoon predicts the future,this cartoon actually proves what it talks about has been going on for over 50 years.

i just thought it was funny that they got the 1890s right for building the car but used another name for RE Olds.

are you talking about the same people that watched Bush get 4000 soldiers killed invading a country so Haliburton and Exxon can make more money?
what "ism" is that called?
