follow on from last story.

Even blind Freddy can see that I am sympathetic to people on the land. Farmers and graziers are financially most important to our economy but because of small numbers are politically insignificant.
Greens in capital cities have much more political pull and most of them wouldn't even know a farmer or grazier. These greens forced our government to run the water of 2 nearly full dams out to the southern ocean whilst irrigation farmers had a nil allocation. I can speak with the knowledge when I say that greens too like to eat.
Are farmers and graziers in the USA treated like ours that is with contempt?
