His comments weren't too abstract. They were a spot on glimpse of just how the left thinks. It is not just a coincidence that Stalin and Mao targeted millions of farmers for liquidation.

Funny things is, they do not even have the economics right. In May, I purchased roughly $20 worth of tomato plants, plus at least that much more in buying potting soil and containers. Despite my care, the season ended early because it was a bad year for leaf blight and too much of our soil is of poor quality and not well-drained.

Since tomatoes from Virginia and points south sell at the supermarket here at a steep discount during harvest season, I estimate my $40 plus investment produced maybe $10 in tomatoes, not counting my time and care. So the libtards should give me a subsidy or a tax refund. Do you think they will?

You should have registered as a farm. Then, yes, the government would pay you for not growing.

The government micromanagement of farms in the USA are from 2 centuries ago.
