[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 970499, member: 6543"] I am not disputing that..... but perception is fifty percent of the battle and the upscale obama voters want all natural food..... and those who can adapt to change are filling this need..... in our area we have a huge interest in what we here term homesteaders....young upscale couples acquiring ten or more acres with a half million dollar house and doing what they can to be self sufficient....goats, sheep, rabbits, large gardens, greenhouse, orchard, vinyard, one or two cows for milk or meat and chickens....good lord there are chickens everywhere.... these people are concerned about what they are eating.... then there is the consumer supported agriculture....you buy a share and get a box of stuff weekly of what is in season and available from the member farms. if you are stuck in ten years ago it is time to peek over the edge of your groundhog hole and see what is going on.... the recent election is just a sign of the changes going on in this country....go to a city mall and walk around for a half hour..... I am not disparaging the past and I don't like what I see down the road....but I cannot change it....and to rail against it is useless. we lost control when we let the federal government be in charge of education so many years ago....and relaxed all standards on everything.....to the lowest common denominator. local debate in one county here right now about changing the grading scale in the schools...from a six point scale to a ten point scale....to be like the surrounding areas.....in other words a failing grade would move from a 74 to a 59.
