Modern Day Plantations?

That's a good argument in favor of creating local economies, such as swap meets and farmer's markets. If you're gonna work the land anyhow, might as well keep the increase as close to home as possible, and cut out the fat cats - they have enough land, they can work it their damned selves.

Country folks can survive. all the resources are out here. Billy Boy buying up farmland, and other factory farms, are most essential to feed city-dwellers, who do not have the resources to feed themselves.

Let 'em starve if Billy Boy ain't willing to work his own patch. We have other fish to fry out here in the hinterlands.

270,000 acres is just under 422 square miles. if it was all in one place instead of spread out, it would be  square 20 1/2 miles on a side. He ought to have enough land to pop out a corn patch if he hops to it and works it off.

Either way, we can take care of ourselves out here in the boonies. Leave the rest alone so the dead can bury the dead.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
