RE: Is the Conventional Farmer Our Enemy?

in #homesteading8 years ago

Farmers are the backbone of this country and typically some of the hardest working individuals. When I worked in manufacturing it was amazing most of the hardest working individuals had been raised in agricultural . If it came down to 2 candidates interviewing for a position I would always pick the one with an ag background.

People in this country are fine with spending large amounts of income on their home (range 35-50%) but only want to spend 5-10% on food which is not typical in other countries. Once we figure out diet is the backbone of our health not drug companies we will start supporting effort the change farming practices.

Thanks for writing this post!

I’m thankful for all the positive responses! A funny story, my husband helped his uncle (an electrician) out a few times, and his uncle had to take a break from being pooped out and my husband tried telling him to just keep going and get done. Lol maybe it was the difference is ages too.
It amazes me how some complain about the price of certain things, but they are the same people that will spend a lot of money on unnecessary items. Well, we all pay for our choices at one point or another.
