cropsey, il 61731 | Maybe there has been conspiracy in politics, but corn? The whole industry works it's tail off to produce more at better quality (the Don C. "we're growing crap" may describe his own farm) while struggling to find markets because we overshoot the market only have someone come along and say it's all bad. In a similar way I'm sure the guys working overtime on battery powered cars will be looked at as satan someday when the green folks decide batteries are evil.
It's media out of control - wikipedia world - everyone is an expert - I don't want to live in a pen so pigs shouldn't. The whole documentary movement is filled with folks who are against work and want their 15 minutes of fame at any cost.
What's really goofy is that somehow these groups collectively want us to go back to 80 acres and a mule, low low pay labor, and life expectancy of about 47. There comes a time call them what they are. Don't elect officials who are swayed by them - I'd take big evil corps any day at least their motives are just profit not misguided social engineering. Besides name a business that doesn't want to grow? Reality is that we're more efficient and can do more, so why not - the only reason it was 80 acres and mule is because that was the highest technology available/practical.
Why not do a documentary on how lack of corporal punishment (or any punishment or correction) is destroying kids lives before they have a chance. Knowing right from wrong and choosing right would certainly make our society better - might have less bank fraud. Instead we're destroying self esteem which is supposed be protected by no correction. Maybe another documentary on how we need to get out and do manual labor once in a while.
Thanks,

Time to defend ourselves... farming is under attack.
