I love farmers. They grow things and they have lots of interesting creatures in their living rooms.

It's a hard job and you never know how the weather will be. You Might have a good year or all your crop could get wiped out after a hail storm.

Well, they feed the world, despite having to give up certain things people in cities enjoy. They have to do their jobs through good weather and bad...

I'd say farmers are pretty good.
 
Farmers... well you know...

They're ok...

BOING!
 
A lot of farming is becoming industrialized and mechanized. Farmers are important and I'm glad we have them, but their trade is a dying one.
 
Well, you have surprised me. I was expecting the "steal our taxes" option to be the most popular, that's certainly the view I got from all the "townies" I used to work with. Maybe I've been hanging out with the wrong type of people.

Anyhow, thanks for the responses, and keep those comments coming! :wave2:
 
Biggest gamblers in the world. margins are so slim you HAVE to be right. most years are a break even proposition at best. And to thinks that if they didn't love what they did and have a connection to the land and thei:)r work we would all starve.
 
They help in the delivery of a lot of things I like, plus the world has to eat. They perform a more important service than a lot of people out there.
 
fuck em. I only buy food made out of artificial flavors that is assembled by robots in a factory.
 
I respect them, but i dont like them.
But farmers here in holland have to put up with a lot of crap and get screwed by the taxes themselfs.
 
I like farmers who have organic farms. In fact I like them alot. Organic meat ftw. *thumbs up*
