Total bull****. Growing food is not a problem in America, never has
been except during the dust bowl days and only for a section of the
country. Government is the problem, not the solution in food as well
as "child support", which is anything but. Demanding absolute
government control for every minor inconvenience has created most of
the problems we have today. Every government 'solution' simply
creates more problems than it solves, which it rarely does.
Without government intervention, my garden each year grows quite
well. I was raised on a farm with pigs, cattle, chickens and acres of
crops; foodstuffs to be sold to those lacking space, time or
intelligence after taking what was needed by the family,so I know
quite well how to grow anything that is suitable for the region in
which I live. When and how to plant is even explained on small
packages of seeds. And we did it without government control telling
us what to grow or paying us not to grow certain items to keep the
price artificially high. Due to government regulations, corporate
farms are the norm along with contaminated foodstuffs.
Whatever gave you the idea I'm talking about a government solution? It
takes a village cause the village will have a few nightowls to keep an
eye on the surveillance gear and an ear on the dogs in case there are
intruders while you are asleep. The nuclear family farmhouse is a
death trap for any jackass SWAT team.

The village has enuf hands, that if the weather threatens, everyone
can, as I remember doing, get out in the field to haul the grain in
before it gets wet.

I was born in a farmhouse in 1939 that was still so crowded with kin
who'd lost urban jobs that I was born in the upstairs hall. Grandpa
just hooked up the team and plowed an extra acre of garden, and we all
got to eat homegrown veggies. But back then, before they lost the jobs
in the city, they'd grown up on family farms, and knew what the ****
they were going. I dont think the fat assed couch spuds today would
know how to grow turnips.

I remember county fair plaques on the wall for 45-48 bu corn/acre
using what we now call 'organic' methods. Agribusiness today doses the
land with Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potash. [that's a period; the
trace minerals needed for maximal mental development have been leached
out long ago] And with that, they get 155 bu corn/acre.

People are too goddamn crazy now to learn to grow their own food.

Not crazy, lazy. Society expects... demands actually, that government do
everything for them, including thinking. True, most people can't plant
anything more than their ass in front of the TV and many children have
no comprehension of where meat and milk actually comes from other than
the store but it does not take a village to do ****. A village only
makes it more difficult, if not impossible, to do what needs to be done
because someone has to feed these leaches and they pass laws to make
their life easier and less real. We had dogs to take care of intruders
and guns if necessary. We didn't need someone to take care of our
business, especially the government. Today, we need a watchman BECAUSE
of the government, which is the village that demands we feed them for
doing a job we don't want and do not need done.
This is exactly how the child support industry came about and has taken
over the job of parenting, resulting in the village mentality that is
destroying America and free will around the world.
Instead of relying on family, we have "facebook" to network with
strangers who have even less of an idea about how to solve a simple
problem. This is all a problem with thinking the "village" is an
improvement.
