The US subsidizes dairy and beef, when in reality putting that money into subsidizing grains and vegetables is so much more beneficial for people in the long run.
Can you imagine getting 4 heads of fresh lettuce or kale for 1$, it could be so much better.
just plant it????
If you live in somewhere where it only snows a few times a winter, you can grow a lot of varieties IN THE WINTER
<- somewhat happy kale
...and if you live in Alaska or Siberia, you plant it in the summer
if you live in Miami or Mexico, then you need to plant it at the coolest time of year and possibly use a shade cloth
needing someone to grow your kale is peak bougie thinking, I am very unimpressed with lemmygrad rn. Even if they live in an apartment they should be demanding community garden or just take over an unused space and start adding kale.
Kale is almost like Radishes it's so easy to grow, literally one of the easiest things to grow. A six year old can be taught to plant, water, and harvest kale.
just look out for these frickers: 
My favorite kale is Red Russian kale
less ruffles, less bugs, easier to wash
Now here's a real praxis idea:
you know those stupid parkinglot landscapings? (expecially if you live in North America?)
kale that shit up
Take coffee grounds (nitrogen = huge leaves) and kale seeds and make it all kale. It would grow easily, and it would be an aesthetic improvement.
Kale is one of the most beautiful plants in existence.

It's worse than that. The feds control the whole dairy industry and keep the price artificially high. If you try to undercut their moonopoly, they'll frickin kill you, man.
