If all farmers disappeared in the U.S., it would lead to immediate, catastrophic food shortages, mass starvation, economic collapse, and the end of civilization as we know it, as agriculture underpins food, clothing (cotton, wool), and many medicines; land would revert to wilderness, but without expertise, production would halt, leaving cities to die, while the long-term effects involve complete reliance on dwindling foreign supplies and synthetic alternatives, ultimately meaning no one would survive without a return to basic food gathering.

This is AI, so a grain of salt. I’m getting old, none of my three kids want anything to do with it, four years of drought, if Mr. Trump wants to allocate some money to the American farmer, which is some of my Fed Income Tax dollars I’m ok with that.

I too support our farmers and trust the Trump administration to equitably disburse our funds in a manner befitting our great Country.
This has not been the case for previous government doles a lot of which have had their feathers trimmed thanks to President Trump.

Just curious but how did American farmers manage to exist for two centuries or so without Chinese markets?
