Actually you might be surprised (as I was) to learn the majority of farms in the U.S. are still family-owned (2020): https://thesustainabilityalliance.us/ninety-eight-percent-us-farms-family-owned/

From 2016: https://www.agri-pulse.com/articles/6513-new-poll-sheds-light-on-how-farmers-ranchers-will-vote-for-president

"In the most extensive poll of how U.S. farmers and ranchers plan to vote for president, respondents overwhelmingly say they’ll support a Republican, and among those, 40 percent say they will support Donald Trump."

So most farmers seem to be right-wing?

Anyway, the OP meme was reacting to how some writer thought that supporting you local farmer's market is "fascist"...

You may also be aware that for all of capitalism's faults, the standard of living has generally increased for the poorest under capitalism: https://fee.org/articles/extreme-poverty-rates-plummet-under-capitalism/

So, I guess my question is what specific problems are you trying to solve, and how might we solve them? A "free market" doesn't automatically fix these problems, any more than regulations automatically fix these issues. Problem with regulations is it makes it harder to start up a farm yourself for example: you have to comply with all these rules that make it cost-prohibitive to run small operations. Problem with "free market" like for housing is certain private entities buying up real estate (homes) and then renting it out.

So I guess have you thought about how these problems might be solved together, or do you think there are mutually exclusive approaches (only one side is right)? I think the rightwing side is "right", but I also identified like with housing how a "free market" approach also allows bad outcomes. However regulation of housing makes it more expensive to provide housing, leading to a lack of a supply of affordable housing and subsequent homelessness.

Anyway if you'd like to discuss it and try to make progress on the problems, that would be nice. Adieu @webghost
