Kari–thanks–glad you thought so.

Karl–from your answer I can see you have never lived on a farm or ranch therefore missing the point of who really feeds you (and the rest of the world.) Very efficiently, I might add. The government gives lots of money to the public schools too–but, I don’t think we should throw teachers under the bus. Sorry you felt my message was too simple. Simple is what I do here. I even welcome Simpletons back for other visits.

Ross–Self-made…or first generation…for me, the author, they both fit. Thanks for sharing your views.

Have a grrrrreat day!

However, farming, as a whole, is being subsidised by the US government.
Which means, the farmer is the grasshopper that is being supported by ants that have learned to not only work hard, but also simple.

Things should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.

In this case, your message is too simple.

Think about it.

I understand not everyone can produce stuff to eat. But (and that’s a big butt) if everyone at least worked–doing something–anything and lived within their means- this great country would be great again. Unshakable, really.

One person at a time we can change. I’m starting with me. Thanks for stopping by. Sandhill Sis

You would think others would understand this simple concept that even the wild animals live by. People just seem to think “the world owes them a living”, but as times get rougher and we each will need to work harder just to support ourselves the “gravy train” may be drying up.

If each person would work to raise at least some of the food they consume, spend less on things they don’t need, and try to recycle what they throw away the world might be a different place.

Even those in the city can still try to garden, have backyard chickens for fresh eggs and be as frugal as possible. This results in much greater standard of living on less money.
