Modern agriculture is driven by math nerds in Omaha and Des Moines corporate offices as approved by the executive board. To claim that farmers in Nebraska diners are the ones pulling the strings shows a naive and/or antiquated understanding of economics

Their argument lacks sense. Industry drives the creation and sustenance of towns, not the other way around.

If agriculture doesn't need all those small towns, which seems to be increasingly evident, then most of those communities should just go extinct. Its not like ghost towns are a new thing...

These psychos really imagine an America where the only thing in between huge cities is farms owned by megacorps and staffed by nothing but robots and illegals and think it'd be a good thing.

Also I feel like if small town America actually did collapse and all of rural America did end migrating to the cities, these frickers would be whining endlessly about how their poor minorities got priced out by white gentrifiers and how their social services are pushed to the breaking point by white trash. The knock on effects to reservations would be hilarious too, wonder if they'll just demand that their precious indigenous Americans move to the cities too.

They'd bust out the old vertical farming meme if you brought that up. Its wild what they think """corporate agriculture""" is. Most family farms are registered as LLC's so that if the company goes bust the family doesn't loose their assets.

“Why do we need farmers when we can all just grow gardens on the balconies of our apartments?”
