    My celiac-ass should not have gotten excited about that sentence. For real though that doesn’t sound good

    And many farmers couldn’t care less. They’ll only really only have to face the facts when crop insurance dries up anyway, though.

      Unless things have changed since my family left the farm, crop insurance is only enough to cover the lost cost of inputs, it’s not going to be enough to turn a profit.

      No farmer wants their crop to fail. They want a good harvest that they can earn some profit from.

    9/11, 2008 economic crash, Iraq/Afghan war and unrest in the Middle-East, a global pandemic, the rise in fascism and erosion of our rights and freedoms, genocide, potential world war, and now another dust bowl like event and the destruction of our eco system.

    Millennial really won at world catastrophe bingo.
