It is a depressing article Harvey and seeing as how "misery loves company...." I thought I'ld share it. How do you combat the insanity of this article's magnitude? Didn't the "dust bowl" teach them nothing? Another problem here is having a buyer who purchases more than.... 20% of your business because they can and will, dictate how you grow and raise everything. You can easily walk away from a 20% buyer.

I agree Harvey, it will end in "collapse" but the ripple effect would have a total collapse including, I think, social services. I also think that this would be a horrible thing to see happen; aside from the fact that we would then be totally at the mercy of other countries and not just with regards to food.
