All I'll say is, then you don't know enough farmers.
Also have you asked the farmers if the wealth you see is their own or entirely on loans from the govt that can be seized overnight if they don't toe the line (use the billionaire's pesticide, buy patented seeds every yearr, etc)?
You'd be surprised at how many people have big, shiny homes, large land holdings (that's eventually over leveraged for those loans), the newest equipment, big cars but are GROSSLY in debt. Talking about our neighbors too fyi.
It's not hard to understand it takes a lot for a farmer to commit suicide à la video.
It's important to zoom out of our individual, solitary lenses and see the world for what it is.

The same with any government welfare, once you suck the tit of the government, they own you. They can do other things with their farms than grow toxic grains for human consumption. If they didnt figure this out yet, their lands should be sold to better carers. I know many farmers who dont just grow grains. They have thriving businesses without debt.
