The Sad State of the American Farm

There are so many good things happening in the small farming movement. Maybe I will do some posts on that someday. But lets focus on the bad today. Its not hard. Just look at 95% of our food industry. How our vegetables and grains are grown and used. How our meat, eggs and dairy are grown and used. All bad and perverted. It baffles the mind, kinda like space, just how much shitty and down right criminal and inhuman and inhumane things that are happening in the large farming industry. Monsanto. Corn. GMO. Subsidies. Monsanto. GMO. Monsanto. Bad after bad after bad. I am going to share two things today, no, three, that are a good snapshot of this state of shit.

One. This article from a fairly decent site: The farm bill is back and it sucks.

Two. The original Chipotle ad/video/song. The message is great. The song is great. Willy's way of singing it is great.


Three. The newest Chipotle ad/video/song. This one is a bit more disturbing, and I like that. I showed both of them to my six year old little girl. She did not like them. The tone of the music did it's job and she did not feel good about what she was seeing after she was explained a few of the parts.


We need to fix our food system bad. It is a big part of the reason our health is so broken. Its like the GOV and the BIG AG and HEALTH CARE, don't want us to be healthy. They have spent years and bazillions constructing this system. It wouldn't be good for business for it to change for the benefit of humans. Hmmmm. Nah, that couldn't be. That's conspiratorial type talk...

So, if you were feeling good this fine Sunday, this might have taken some of that away. That is exactly what needs to happen. This needs to piss us off. Best way to beat this. Vote against all that are for anything that feeds this system. That makes up about everyone who is in office right now. The real best way to beat this is opt out. Grow your own. Buy from real farmers. Stay healthy. Let their system kill it self as it most likely will, eventually. Till then, opt out.

Oh yeah, update on some other shit, things still suck in paces like Syria, most of Africa, North Korea and oh yeah, some little place called Detroit. Peace.
