[Tell It Right]

I'll believe there's a food shortage only AFTER the gubment quits paying farmers to keep land fallow --- most of the time ostensibly to keep from growing too much food and causing food prices to be too low for farmers to stay in business.

At least that's their ostensible purpose.

We started growing some of our own food, but it is a lot of work, takes more land than expected and water.

All worth it.

Well, I farmed for a year and grew a crop of corn
That stretched as far as the eye can see
That’s a whole lot of cornflakes,
Near enough to feed New York till 1973

Cultivation is my station and the nation
Buys my corn from me immediately
And holding sixty thousand bucks, I watch as dumper trucks
Tip New York’s corn flakes in the sea
