Both my grandfathers and my uncle were farmers. Neither took any gov't handouts. They were proud, hard working men. I was there. I used to stay with them on weekends and for weeks on end during summer vacations. I saw how hard they worked. When I got older, I worked along side them. All day, every day. Later I worked and earned my living for two years as a full time farm hand. There wasn't time to be spent posting on the internet.
