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.....

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
