Intelligence vs wisdom… he may have the one, but probably not the other.

Anti-capitalist maybe, but pro capital. Dear leader and his cronies need the cash crops to for export, fancy houses don’t grow on trees. They grow off the the sweat of the worker.

I didn’t intend to say the farmer is making the choices solely for personal profit. They grow what sells, or what they’re told to, so they can afford to live, not their choice.

In the end I see we agree. It’s not about an ism. It’s all about cash. Money. Capital. And greed doesn’t care about crop rotation- it’s too short sighted.

Methinks it’s a capitalist issue, not a farming issue.

Farmers can’t bank seeds and have to buy new every year or face legal consequences.

Probably also planting based on value of crop vs cost of growing not nutritional red of the community.

Might be the idea. “They won’t dare try anything now, because it’ll be worse.”

Russian economy tanks, piles of roubles…

As far I knew it was already a thing, kind of. They know what you search for and route you near those things… and make sure the businesses show up on the map.

Trump is a foot in the door, there are some scary and actually intelligent people behind the scenes.

We’re in a frogs in the pot situation.

Just have it at the surfing venue. Teahupo’o.

Latino? Isn’t he Canadian?

Odd that it didn’t get blocked by these US banking institutions, or they got the transfer fees then flagged the transactions…

Looks a lot like our border collie too-dark with light legs and chest, floppy ears and especially the crazy eyes.

Ah, my bad- so it is. To be honest all I’ve ever heard about the Foxconn iPhone factories in china is them using Chinese semi slave labor run by Chinese people.

I guess taiwan number one China is still a bit shady at times…

Wait… I thought Apple left China because of slave(ish) labor reasons. But are still using Foxconn which is a Chinese company?

Ah found this: “Like many of its competitors, Apple has relied on China for assembling its products for years. But political and economic factors have forced the company, as well as the broader tech sector, to rethink that approach by seeking partners from across the region.” (Link

You can take the production out of China, but not China out of production…all for ‘optics’.
