Why Farmers Voted For Trump

I mostly agree with her arguments but do have a little issue with labeling so many as wealthy. sure a lot actually are but some are only on paper due to land values. you can be poor as shit, trying to hold on to a family legacy farm with the personal value of wanting to stay in ag, but the land may be worth millions and millions. choosing to keep it in production instead of selling out for development - housing or whatever - isn't reflected in the stats she cites.
