RE: The High Suicide Rate of Farmers in the US

in #psychology8 years ago

I grew up in tobacco country and remember when my Grandad had his little crop (he had a job in town). During the plant and harvest, the town was abuzz with lawyers, farmers, trucks, and the like. It was fun. Then the government got heavily involved in tobacco. Regulations and permitting became a nightmare, and many of the old boys in the county stopped growing.

My heart yearns for the farmer to come back in our country.

Government steps in many times to control things that are being done freely. Local or international governments like to keep a tight noose on things. Thanks for your feedback.
