    How about you grow stuff Americans want, rather than what the govt will buy and give away overseas ?

    You know - like Trump suggested.

      This statement shows that you don’t understand much about modern, mechanical farming.

      It’s a lot of expensive equipment specialized for picking & packing the crop you are harvesting. One of my vendor’s combines are $500k to start & it only picks cotton.

      This makes it very difficult & expensive to just change crops on a whim. Not to mention, you can only grow what your soil & climate will actually grow. Soybeans are wonderful for nitrogen fixation so it’s pretty common to grow between other crops.

        If these welfare queens can’t make anything people want then no matter - there’s a million people lined up ready to take their job.

          Turning hateful terms back on the people who originated them doesn’t protect innocent bystanders from that hate. Please stop.
