A government handout? Lazy no good farmers taking my taxes. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Stop buying Starbucks. And most importantly, stop voting for gop pedophiles.
Fuckin welfare states. Pick yourselves up by the bootstraps you fuckin “without us America is nothing” fuck boys. I’m tired of these red states hurting people and still getting handouts.
I always have to laugh when I’d see people online arguing for rural areas/rural states and getting chapped about states being called “flyover states”. They’d start with that “but WE supply your food! The people in the cities would starve without us!”
WTAF. Get outta here with that shit. First of all, most of what I eat comes from Mexico and California. Secondly, it’s not as if these people are supplying food out of a sense of altruism. They act like they are really doing something truly noble and everyone else should bow and scrape over their racist bullshit because of that?
These people are going to really not know what to say as automation really, really starts taking flight for these kinds of jobs (why we started applying AI to things like white collar jobs first I have no idea). I know for a fact that full, end-to-end automation is a goal of the coal industry and it sure as hell is one for farming, too, as I saw a presentation on it being made several years ago. In any case, it’s going to be hard for these morons that happen to live near corporations extracting food from the land act like they should call the shots on how most Americans live their lives.
These assholes have been unable to deal with the reality that most Americans live in cities and have for quite some time…they just have not caught up. But these people think a minority are “real murica”.
Useless map. The only potential human food on that map is wheat.
It’s also almost 20 years old
Edit: I actually didn’t see the fruits, nuts, etc but my point still stands IMO.
The only potential human food on that map is wheat.
Huh? Humans eat corn, soybeans, fruit, nuts and vegetables, which are all on the map.
The corn and soybeans grown in the US is not for humans
Thanks. I wasn’t aware. I’m doing some reading and it’s surprising.
I’ve been saying for a while that the USA needs to disband and form (at least) three new Unions - a West Coast Union; a Northeast Union; and a Midwest/South Union(s). Take away all of the safety nets that red states get from the federal government supplemented by blue states and they’ll descend into utter chaos in a matter of months. That’s the only way that red state constituents will have a chance of realising how much they benefit from the federal government they so often rail against.
You want states’ rights? Secede and see how long you last.
Don’t lump Midwest with the South! Give them to the east coast.
So US tax payers are paying for the tariffs. Who would have every guessed?
Paying twice. You pay the tariffs on imported goods and pay again to bailout the local farmers who can’t sell their goods overseas.
For this large of a bailout, my groceries should be free.
A solution for a problem he created.
It solves nothing.
They say you have to bury a farmer 10 feet down to prevent their arm from popping out of the ground to collect another handout.
Or you could feed them to the wood chipper
Or pigs…
