LOL... of course I do!   Nearly every day of the week.

  Can I ask you—roughly—where you live.

and how many of these farmers

1   are wearing a mask becasue they are terrified of a mild respiratory virus

2  are driving an electric vehicle

3  are members of PETA.

4  hand out how to vote cards for the green party
(in fact the greens probably dont even run a candidate)

So you're not prepared to tell me what local you
reside in?
 
Just deflecting my question?  Bit sad mate.  I'm
presuming then you live in suburbia, as you seem to
have very little knowledge of farming and rural regions.

Most farmers around here vote for the Nationals, and
you can see the relationship here:



Gippsland and Nicholls are owned by The Nationals,
Indi by Independents(!), and Monash by the Liberals.

outer suburban acreage to be near my businesses  and bigger acreage an hour from town.

the bigger acreage has appreciated orders of magnitude as suddenly everyone wants a tree change

my businesses x 2 are successful financially ,

my farm makes virtually no money but the land goes up so much in value every year, it probably makes more then the businesses.

there is very little money in farming

farming is an absolute pleasure when you are already wealthy

it is catastrophically stressful when you are not.

i could have used my surplus cash to buy porches and yachts and status symbols.

but buying land is way better for your mood.

as my son in law is part aboriginal, i get to spend a lot of time just going walkabout, fixing up over grown gullies, replanting native species, putting the grandkids on a horse, feeding the cows.

its interesting that 2 of the people o admire the most

tai lopez and ryan holliday (american business guru types) both spend nearly all their spare time wandering around on their farm just being goofy.

its why i know that the covid lockdown and the voice to parliament and inner city greens are evil things

people need to reconnect with the earth, walk barefoot in the bush, not listen to intellectuals and canberra types who offer nothing .

the self help people taught me a lot as did the local farmers and my son in law.

i am going to do a bit of prepping.

the polarisation i see on the internet, leads me to believe that breakdown of cities is highly likely.

the drone footage of gaza looks much like a post nuclear apocalypse.

if you are in gippsland you should probably do the sane
and dont listen to the urban greens who saw your community burn on black saturday
(whilst the woke commisioner nixon ate at a fine resturant if memory serves me)
