We need small farms, not Big Ag. Here’s the truth about U.S. Ag policy: we are paying bankers to crush family farms. We call bankers "farmers" and give them cash. How by running up costs (via state funded monopolies) forcing a sale then “consolidating” them into mega-farms. Food doesn’t get cheaper or safer, BECAUSE THEY DONT GROW FOOD. Factory farms make factory feed or factory stock and inputs. In Iowa for example only 0.03% of farmland grows food you actually eat. The rest? Fuel, animal feed, plastics, and crops for global commodity markets. We pay for this, get sprayed with chemicals, and see zero benefit. Might as well hand the money directly to the richest firms and people in America? Like Bill Gates. American small farms are being wiped out—systematically, on purpose. Only 9% of farmers are under 35. Big Ag has created a fake image of the farmer: corporate partners, not family farms. Then they fund only these mega-farms and consolidate them into massive franchises. Numbers don’t lie: $1.5B spent lobbying Congress in 10 years Top 5 companies made $150B profit 100,000 family farms gone Who benefits? Not the farmers. They claim to protect heritage while killing rural life. Bigger farms = fewer customers = more control. At least 25% of Iowa farmland is now owned by out-of-state investors who don’t care about small towns, Friday night football, or local communities. Land is bought for profit, not people. Meanwhile, Iowa’s farmland is prime, yet we import 95% of our food. Young farmers can’t afford land. Rural communities are on life support. This is deliberate, not accidental. If we want food sovereignty, thriving family farms, and living rural communities, we need to wake up—and act—before it’s too late.

We must re-establish our historic borders by any means necessary, and take back what’s ours
