Civilization follows the plow, the sheep follow the shepherd.
All Truly Sustainable forms of Agriculture are Grounded in the Basis of Keeping Livestock. Livestock are Key to Proper Nutrient Management & Cycling. Soil is a Resource which is Not Renewable in the Context of Continuous Crop Production and Removal, Animals allow for Renewal.
You need fossil fuels or slaves to be a vegetarian or a vegan. It would be impossible for a vegan to work hard enough to raise their own vegan diet. You either have a pig, or you do the work of a pig.
"Bureaucracy is no longer an overdrawn departmentalism. It has become a new concept of government. A concept that rests on the pernicious doctrine of implied powers. A concept that envisions a government of men to supplant our government of law. A concept that holds that…
One more Reason that the Efforts of the FDR Administration was Detrimental to Farmers in the Face of Corporate Interests in Agriculture. The Secretary of Agriculture in 1939 was Henry A. Wallace, also one of the Founders of Pioneer Hi-Bred Seed.
The "variety not stated" (VNS) allowance in the Federal Seed Act (1939, with key amendments in 1956 and later) was influenced by lobbying from the American Seed Trade Association (ASTA) and major firms like Pioneer (now Corteva) and Monsanto (now Bayer). They pushed for…

How Much of the Healthcare Expenditure is Spent on Administration versus Actual Caregivers?
Americans now spend more on health care than groceries or housing, with health care accounting for approximately 20% of household expenditures, according to the New York Times.
Why do Kids take Out Student Loans instead of an Unsecured Loan or Business Loan for College Expenses?
Modern college exists because it’s basically illegal to screen for job candidate intelligence using simple IQ tests. So kids have to waste 4+ years and go into crazy debt to pay for their own indoctrination because Boomers hate IQ.
This is Where Farm Bureau teaches Young Impressionable FFA Members to be Vocal Leaders in Defense of Corporate Agriculture. Both Organizations were Started to Benefit the Family Farmers but have Become the Leaders of the Defense of Centralized System that Consolidates Power in…

This is so Disingenuous as there was Nothing that these Charlatans could say when Small Hog Farms were pushed Out of Business or into Consolidating during the Market Crash of 1998. They Step up to Defend the System that Arose from Corporate Malfeasance and Corruption.
Prop 12 was dreamt up by folks that have never stepped foot on a hog farm, but have dictated the terms by which #MN01 farmers raise their pigs. I’m proud of the actions @HouseAgGOP has taken to move on fixing Prop 12, creating certainty for the industry, and allowing our…
It is so Strange how Comments like This get marked as Spam when they are More Accurate than others Not so Marked. The X algorithm is biased in Favor of Centralized Industries and works to Silence Narratives of Decentralized Industrial Movements.
Prop 12 is states rights, consumer choice, and the free market at work. Farmers who want to sell to California must follow their rules or they can sell their pork elsewhere. You don’t get to tell Californians what kind of pork they must buy. Why don’t you understand this?
The Big Corporate Hog and Chicken Farms are Going to Try to Fight Food Sovereignty like a Battle to the Death because for them it Can be. These types of Laws Break Up the Corporate Control on these Industries and Restore Food to Local Control where it is Supposed to Be.
Iowa raises 40% of the nation’s hogs while California produces 1/10 of 1%. Yet, California’s #Prop12 mandates tell Iowa farmers how to raise their hogs. It’s a ridiculous regulation that is raising pork prices and hurting our ag economy. Check out my remarks in the TV story ⬇️

One of my controversial takes is that’s you should not spread your inheritance evenly among your children and especially if you are a farmer. This is one of the things that’s ruining family farms.
This is Why Kids Raised on Farms are Better Off in Life. You Learn to Work Hard Early on in Life and It Doesn’t End Up being a Huge Shock when They Need to Do Something Unpleasant, They Just Do It because They Have Pushed Through Hard Stuff in the Past.
"This is what they took from us!" - Suggest learning to build/rebuild civilization for $25 an hour starting rate. Screaming, crying, accusations, "I'm not pushing a hecking wheelbarrow in the SUN!"
This Kind of Efficiency is All a Measured Success as it is Purely a Paperwork Effort in Less Deficiencies being Written Up. I Bet if You ask Those with Feet on the Ground or Families of Those in the Homes, these “Efficiencies” are Not Felt on a Patient Level.

It is Quite the Reach to Claim that Whole Communities are Built on the Benevolence of Hospital Administrator Value. Seems Like a Wheelbarrow full of Cope or BS.
Collectively, a lot. Look at public school grades. The schools with the highest grades will be in UMC neighborhoods because Hospital Administrators give a shit and hold the schools accountable for poor performance. They're not dismissing biology as a liberal hoax.
The fact is that Healthcare is a Service that is Sold to People. The Effectiveness of the Service is Never Fully Measured because they Actually Can’t Stop the Strokes from Happening or the Pneumonia from Occurring. They might be able to Treat the Symptoms but the Only…
Probably a lot because the hospital treating these working class people when they have a stroke or get pneumonia wouldn't exist without them.

Very Good Point in the Change of Common Culture Away from Community Focus to One of Economic Development for a Few
If you want to get right down to it, the Enclosure Acts & related events significantly helped set us on the course of disastrous agricultural policy that we live with today. We've been fighting off consolidation, rural destruction, and untenable policy ever since.
The Best Time to do this in Most Areas is Late Winter and Early Spring. Most Cows Bred for Spring Calves are Long Bred at this Point. The Price Cycles tend to be Lowest in Dec, Jan and Early Feb. The Key is Being Able to Feed them Well. A Grinder Mixer is a Wise Investment.
I would start by going to the Sale Barn and Seeking Long Bred Old Cows & just Try to Beat the Killer Buyer off of them by a few cents per pound. The Light Weight Old Cows will bring less per Lb than the Heavier Cows and could Open a way to get into the Market without Paying Top…
Isn’t this phenomenon something that should signal to people that there is an inherent issue in the economic system if two competing parties who find common cause in expressing their dissatisfaction?
The online narrative however is very very similar, almost just a word swap. I mean you could probably take some speech by Mamdani and make it sound "RW" with a handful of word substitutions. At least on economic points.
