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.
