Alexandra Fasulo has been starting up a small farm, and reports frequently on Substack about problems and blessings. She finds the USDA is a huge blessing, ready to provide all sorts of material assistance and information to new and old farmers.
Henry Wallace would be proud. He built the USDA into a massive servant of farmers after the Dust Bowl, and it’s splendid to see the spirit of SERVICE is still abundant there.
Repooflicans want to kill EXACTLY the helpful parts of government (Agriculture, Post Office, IRS, Social Security) and preserve EXACTLY the evil parts like war and spying. Unfortunately the modern Dems aren’t trying hard to preserve the good parts.
