It would be like if you and I owned the only two gas stations in a small town, and we agreed to both keep our prices above market value so that we would both make more money.
There need to be more 4-H programs for children before the next generations have all their fresh food imported to the United States. I believe farmers are the salt of the earth. We need all that farming talent protected for the future.

My children did not have the 4-H program in school. What ever happen to that program? We have no future farmers in my family that will take over the farm.
