I agree that a million is not a big number anymore. But it still is a yardstick that 90% of the population would fail. I don t see starvation in other countries that have deregulated AG?
Yeah, everyone is getting some cheese. Some folks get welfare. Most farmers wouldn t trade checks with them.
As far as ag being difficult, a lot of businesses are difficult. My family has been in construction, manufacturing as small businessmen. Again, no subsidized stuff. Most manufacturing that gets export subsidies are defense related or like Boeing. My point isn t that other sectors of the economy don t get subsidies, but AG does, and they don t want to admit to it. I think public opinion has changed against AG, they see it as a big subsidized business, that really does nothing for them, populated by reactionary people. The world could, within a few years, do without American AG. Hunger isn t a function of production, but economic issues.
Btw, thanks for the civil tone. Many folks get real defensive, real quick.
