Iowa Farmers Threatened by Climate ‘Solutions’ – EV tractors ‘4x the cost’

Iowa’s rolling fields, stretching as far as the eye can see, have long embodied America’s agricultural prowess. For generations, the farmers of this Midwestern state have fed not just a nation but a significant portion of the world, their toil and ingenuity creating an agricultural superpower.

Yet today, these same farmers feel the very foundations of their way of life threatened by proposals to limit greenhouse gas emissions to address a fabricated climate emergency.

Iowa farmers at a homeschooling conference my colleagues attended were well aware of widely publicized protests of European farmers against government moves to limit the use of fertilizers and the practice of animal husbandry. They fear copycat actions from a U.S. government that would impose impractical and unnecessary “solutions” for a nonexistent problem.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Guys, you bought into this climate crap so you could sell corn ethanol as fuel to ruin our small engines and mess with our cars, while you ran your tractors on diesel.

Now the chickens are coming home to roost.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Using corn to create Ethanol to be blended with gasoline does not make economic sense - it causes food inflation and is not a positive value proposition.

If farmers want their USDA subsidies, they be made to play ball with the Green New Deal's policies.
