$20Billion in global subsidies...that's about $3 a head. Far below a sustaining industry. [/LEFT] I'd like to meet one of the few that actually turn an independant dollar and shake his hand.

Apparently the entire globe is to have state funded commercial agro by 2015.... that will mean a totally state reliant commercial ag system. That makes all farmers less than subsistence.

It's all there. If you look you'll find it. Without tax breaks or subsidies industrial farms wouldn't exist and not a single farmer would make enough to feed himself. They aren't even substaining themselves and that is why the number is high. Food production subsidies/ tax incentices are...

Does China make up the bulk of the world's population? How many others live in Asia? Do we have subsistence farmers in Canada or US? In the US it's nearly all of them. Without the $28 per acre subsidy the US farmer wouldn't make enough to pay his bills and put food on the table.

I already gave it to you. It has ag stats for the entire globe. You'll find what you need in there. Post #19 first line.

That is why we have greenie weenies who want to reduce the population before the crisis really hits. North America has a 3 day supply of food. Just one solar flare can wipe out the entire electric grid sending us back to the steam age in a matter of seconds. 72 hrs away from chaos...

FAO: FAO Home Number of Chinese Farmers Dropping China's labor force is undergoing a historic shift from farms to factories and service trades with the number of farmers dropping 20 percent from 1979 to 2001. Figures released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) Monday show that those...

You'd best check into that. Within your life time in Canada farm populations have gone from 25% to 2%. Go back another generation and 95% were farmers just like the majority of the global population.. Do you really believe the rest of the planet should be packed into unsustainable cities? What...

What are you opinions on Bill HR 875 passed by Congress?

No you don't have to set up death camps. You simply restrict new land from being cleared using "green laws". We've been ****ed ever since ground water became poisonous.

Yuuuuup! And I'll say it again. Population control is the only out. 20,000 dead per day everyday at current levels. Is it because there is no food or because they can't afford to buy it? Do they give it away or sell it?

I'll say it again....95% of the global population are subsistence farmers. That means it's from field to mouth and nothing goes to market. Mr. Rees makes zero reference to the fact population isn't getting any lower. The entire talk is based on current global population. Some Soviet type...

Seen it before. Does this jackass have jobs for the 95% of the global population who are subsistance farmers so they can buy food? No farm, no food. No job, no food.

Yup. Too many eaters not enough cleared land to farm. Solution: Eliminate 75% of the global population. Whose first? You Avro?

You don't fertilize with pig ****! Are you nuts? You really really really have a lot to learn about agriculture.

Food is bad!

Rocks are very specific and the structures unique.

I once saw this guy who was featured with the "Jim Rose Circus Sideshow" he could lift a suitcase and two cinder blocks with his strecthed out wang. I bet he could screw himself and give change. Mr Lifto he called himself. More here: mr lifto - Google Search

Whooping cranes....distinct line or just albino sandhill cranes?
