I’d love to see the govt get out of Ag, but.....

Every govt wants a secure food source to keep their citizens calm. ‘Food is a weapon’ is somewhat true, tho it is more properly ‘food is a tool’ for govt to use as a carrot
as well, cheap food prices keep citizens calm and spending on other things, it is part of the entire social engineering done by governments.

Govt ain’t going to give up the power they have by controlling food, generally the cheaper it is the better for govt purposes.

Just about everyone in the USA is a millionaire, if used in the same sense you are using that concept.

You go to work in a factory and run a molding machine, that machine, the concrete it sits on, the roof over it, the climate control around it, the office staff needed to keep
it running, the staff to maintain it, shipping and handling to bring in and take away product.... that’s gonna be a million bucks per factory worker too.

And is exactly the same way you are comparing values.

The farm is my business, my job, the million bucks isn’t anything I could spend or have or see. It is the investment so I can earn my paycheck.

Just the same as any factory worker.

If you mean city dwellers might not understand that, yea I know.

But it is exactly the same deal they have, they are millionaires exactly the same as any farmer then.

Agriculture won’t work if they try to make it different, so it doesn’t matter what they understand, it’s how things work that is important. If they wish to change how
agriculture works and make it different than what they have for themselves, we can see how that worked in venesualia, zimbobwa, perhaps South Africa soon......

Kinda important people figure out how things really are, and how things work, and move forward.

Ag works as a bulk commodity, low cost world traded goods deal. If folks demolish that and make it different, they will go hungry, they will have less to spend on their 4K
TV sets.....
