US farmers did the same thing back in the 1970s when hundreds of tractors descended on Washington D.C.

Food prices will double from what they are now by the end of this year
People will feel like it’s like North Korea and living in old Mexico 😢😢😢

And yet land prices and rents are sky high.

Real estate companies are buying up everything right now because they know we can't compete with them in this economy. Very sad stuff for us Americans.

They get govt subsidies whenever they need. My family are farmers in Ohio. We got a million of your tax dollars over the past 20 years, thanks bro.

[@trevorn9381]

@@mastabas One million over 20 years is $50K a year. You can't even buy a new stripper model 4x4 farm pickup truck for $50K anymore.

[@connergazal3072]

Those higher land prices are a direct result of government subsidies. 2018-19 trade war restarted direct payments.

Trump started the sanctions on China, who just cancelled more Wheat and Corn deliveries. this is not a right / left problem. it s politicians sold out to Corporate Profit. Corporate America wants your farm and Trump is with them. Start Thinking instead of just fishing for propaganda that lets you hate the other side.
