Where does food come from?

Yes, let me ask, Where does food come from? I hear nonsense.

Around here most farmers (who are nearly all Conservative) have at least one truck that has a diesel. Most are asked to pull their rated GRVW much of the time. Almost never see them in their big trucks unless they have a job to do. Yes many make lots of money or sometimes lose large amounts of money, no crime in that. They have millions of dollars of investment. Most have no use for something that isn't needed, (example smoke) a hallmark of being conservative.

Some trucks like this are inevitably sold in cities and suburbs. Havens for Progressive democrats. If you are in or near an urban area I would suggest that you smell your own armpits for political comrades. I went to the dentist once and the dental assistant was driving such a truck. Chrome dual shocks, jacked up a mile high. Not a spec of dirt.

About my only point of agreement is that you don't need a truck that makes oodles of smoke.

We all contribute to the mess to one degree or another, kind of the definition of being an ecomodder.
