Want To Fix Food? And The Economy? Here's How

The US used to have a way for poor young people to work their way up to owning a farm. Now, the way you become a farmer is... mostly just be wealthy. That's it. And that explains a lot about the food system, and the US's rural economic problems. This video talks about how the "agricultural ladder" used to work. It had a lot of problems, but there's still a lot we can learn from it. And there's a lot we can learn from taking farm history seriously. Today's political & economic problems have all happened before- in farm country. There's real lessons in farm history, it's not just something to feel nostalgic about.
