We've been watching the farmer being pushed out for a long time by the powers that be. I'm sure we aLL have wanted to do something about it most things that the powers that be control. So tell us how we do that? We are not blind just powerless

If by "Powers that be" you mean corporations, sure. The issue is that financially it just makes sense to run farming as a large operation to take the economy of scale into account. The only things I fault the government for is not limiting subsidies to smaller farms so that they end up lining to pockets or corporate bigwigs.

Perhaps follow the lead of India, the Netherlands, Germany and France? Those folks have always known how to get things done instead of falling for the notion voting in an election is the answer.
