      right. 3 million "farmers" vs. 2 million "farmworkers", 50% of which are undocumented (up from 15% 2 decades ago) per usda.

      In a sense it is "on topic". Can you imagine what ppl would've thought in 1816 if we said average farmer age would be 60?

      tbf they'd likely have thought medicine must have advanced such that 60 yr olds were spry and youthful.

      plummeting fertility, farmers replace children with foreign serf labor, with no heirs must work into their dotage.

      That makes it sound appropriately dystopian! But the big picture isn't so bad: farming so mechanized that each family only-

      -needs one member to run the business, a position that the patriarch guards into dotage, like a tenured professor.

      This closely-held family dynamic artificially inflates farm prices like a mother-f'er..

          Right. Some farmers cry poor but it's their lifestyle that is in trouble, not their living.
