That's OK. I am right with you there. Political or not, I think it is basic survival instinct. He who controls the food, controls everything. Not saying there is anything sinister behind it. However, personally prefer freedom myself. I'll always feel better about controlling something as basic as my own food as much as possible. And when I can't I always feel better knowing the local farmer, that I can trust, who does.
