Are you a farmer?
>Lower risk of cancer than the general population
higher risk due to the chemicals exposure
Oh yeah all super fun and amazing yet you don't understand that doing that shit yourself means you'd be doing that sun up to sun down with no days off and making the most arbitrary shit (like maple syrup) is such a pain in the ass. Fuck that
>hitching yourself to the monsanto jew
>12+ hour days making $6 an hour if you're lucky when it's all said and done, no weekends off, no hope of vacation
>Being a serf for Monsanto
You do realize that in the US Monsanto has the legal ability to sue the shit out of any Farner they want and take possession of all their property, don't you? And since they own the USDA and both parties they get away with it.
Because it's dreary, isolating work that's got the most bullshit meta around it. Managing land expenses and doing an absurd amount of accounting and bookkeeping to make sure you're pulling of a 1.25% profit margin for the year and then still getting fucking ruined by land magnates and developers who essentially just steal your property.
I've got as much of a pastoralist fantasy as anyone and running a comfy radish farm in Montana sounds like a good way to spend your life like Voltaire said, but in the end it's just a good way to get driven into bankruptcy by bad government policy and land sharks.
Just garden and hunt on top of a normal job. All the same benefits but you don't get ruined because they decided not to reimburse alfalfa subsidies this year.
I am looking into homesteading. Future career allows for enough free time to be able to garden and raise animals. It's nice having a clear goal for the future instead of the typical, nebulous goal of "make more money."
Indeed i am, user.
>Being american
That's your mistake right here
Looks like we have a bad case of never gonna make it. Enjoy your 3 weeks of vacation a year from a soul-crushing pen-pusher job, your life could unironically be a permanent vacation.
>believing this mom science bullshit
>poisoning the environmet with glyphosate
no thanks
my desire to build rockets is stronger
T. Doesn't know shit about chemicals,will scan Google for bias confirmation
>still getting fucking ruined by farming subsidies aka free moneys
>grueling labor all day every day
>Unironically permanent vacation
Okay boss whatever you say. *sips cool glass of lemonade in my AC office* thanks for picking my lemons though, Paco.
>office
Weakling.
>assuming I'm weak because I work in an office
Nice one bro.
Unless you already have a fuck ton of money or land it is impossible in the day and age to become a farmer
its hard to employ decent ppl for farm labor. because everyone trying to pay minimum wage. and its ball busting work.
The subsidy system is fucking archaic and forces you down specific monoculture investments if you want to be remotely competitive. There are a hundred ways they could modernize the agriculture market but they just don't bother because there's so much money wrapped into the current system.
Oh nose da ebil monsanto!!
Reminder that literal serf farmers in the 1200s worked less hours than a full time employee today
good season 4 crops
bet u didn't know that
But that's not true at all.
