    I want to explain this clearly, because it seems you think the size of a farm determines its socio-economic philosophy. But really, a big, corporate farm is more efficient than smaller farms due to economics of scale. Now, that's a complex phrase, so here's a link that explains it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economies_of_scale
    Reply like that again and I am sticking you on ignore. I am not an idiot and I do know all about the economics of scale, this remarks was simply uncalled for.

    Which is why the Soviet Union had to import grain.
    It was because the farmers burned all their land and slaughtered their livestock so it never went into the hands of that government as they were sent to the gulags and the land was then worked by people who didn't have a single clue how to actually farm.



    On another point, I agree with comments from the following members as these are examples of how it is a big threat or sprouted opinions which say they are:
