Off-based Farming

Liberals will attack anything and everything, if they think they are right and somebody else is wrong. This article has some very good points to make, but the challenges within the food distribution system and not the fault of the farmers - who are just shills for the corporate agriculture mentality. Note how he writes off the organic farmers - get used to the idea of growing your own food! and clothing. and entertainment. et al.

On another note - I have observed that by including blogs in social networks, the PTB has essentially killed off the independent blogger - for instance, people who are into Facebook blogs are completely consumed in the facebook system and don't get howdt to read the rest of the world. The service of telling what is going on has been obfuscated with so much overload, that blogging has become a ventilation to get things howdt rather than a source of valid information. Unless you know who's blogs to go to, you just get shuffled more of the same in large volume. Time to rethink the whole game yet again...
