The day that someone arrives at my home to tell me that I can’t have a garden is the day I go postal with great prejudice.

NO kidding!!

Even slaves had their OWN gardens.

This whole ball of “reforms” is to enslave us all to government control, for THEIR GREEDY BENEFIT!

The day that someone arrives at my home to tell me that I can’t have a garden ...that's not their intent.

Nope, this will go after "big farms" "for our own good". Once the Darwinian process is over, and the (well politically connected/legally represented) survivors have been squeezed as hard as they can....

Then, they'll go after the guy who has a few rows of blueberries that he sells at the local grocery store / farmer's market. And the guy who has a stand by the road to unload the extra watermelons and tomatoes that he has to make a few bucks. It'll be "for our own good. What if they sold you something was wasn't carefully inspected/vetted/gov't scrutinized"?

Once they run off all of the people with a little extra motivation, they'll tax your property at a ridiculous rate so that you can't afford to have a couple of acres with a nice garden. You can move to the city, with everyone else. OR, they might decide that your land is the ideal habitat for some endangered mouse, or bug, or flower, and just take it from you.

But, they'll *NEVER* tell you that you can't raise a garden. That'd be un-American.

I'm feeling cynical today. Could you tell?

You wouldn't be alone. Maybe the papers would call the backlash "going Mean Green".

Is the day you get free fertilizer, or feed for the hogs.
