I think the thing people have to face here is that small farm is dead. What was once a "sustainable farm" isn't sustainable anymore. People want more for themselves and their families that to work sun up to sun down, married to a herd of cows with the kids wearing hand me downs. Don't matter if we like it or not. How many takers do you think you would get if you all of a sudden brought back those 32,000,000 or so farms? I saw a lot of kids in the early 70's running as far as fast as they could from the farm.
