Inside Rural America - Enemy of the State?

High population areas of the United States, Canada, and Europe have become so removed from the rural areas where food is made that they have forgotten the people who grow the very food everyone eats!
Due to this breakdown in understanding between Urban and Rural areas, laws have been passed by the higher population areas that are a disaster to the rural areas. This has caused the people of the rural areas to feel that they are an enemy of the state!
In this video, you are invited to experience the conversation of 2 amazing men in southern Colorado as they speak out about the issues they face.

We had a Dairy Farm for 40 years….milking 100 cows and putting up our own feed…just me and hubby. Did we always get our bills paid? Yes we did, but we worked our asses off for hardly any profit after bills. One 3 day weekend was our time off in ALL of those 40 years. Never ever took a sick day…lucky we rarely got sick. My point being is…why do farmers have to work for free just so people get the cheap food THEY want, while ‘town job” people took their vacation, sick time, fancy cars and homes. We said enough in 2018 and sold the cows. People can milk their own cows in my ever humble opinion….cuz they don’t want to give us a fair wage for dairy farmers to do it for them. ✌🏻❤️🐄

I used to live in southern Colorado in las animas county for many years till I moved back to Indiana. I currently reside on my family farm. These farmers and ranchers go through some tough times. You do the job because it’s in your blood. There isn’t much money in farming or ranching. Land rich but cash poor. Colorado is in a sad state of affairs since the California people moved in and took over. The hippies ruined the state of Colorado. I knew many people in the area. This wolf situation is terrible. Should have never happened.

[@dresdenliam]

It's all by design.

[@mfallen6894]

I don't even think it was the hippies... I lived in CO in the 00's and as far as I could tell the hippies had infested Boulder, Telluride, Nederland, Springs, Breck, etc since the 70's. They were there for 45 years and then ~10-12 years ago something "evil" crept in... I AM a 90's/00's hippie/Deadhead, and I still run in those circles (I just do a lot less running...) and we're mostly Trump supports now, lol. He's a populist, and "Live and let live" is the mantra of the Dead scene. Patriotic, America-loving, "let me do my thing, I'll let you do yours, as long as neither of us is preventing the freedom of anyone else (within reason... and banning things like guns, hunting, forcing kids to get trans propaganda in schools. That's not reasonable and is far from not harming the freedom of others) Anti-gun is not a thing I've heard in these circles, I'm sure it exists, but I spent 4-5 years following what was left of the Dead from show to show every spring/summer, so I know that community pretty well. The closest I can see is the fringe minority (even in this community) of hardcore vegans who would be the type to want to ban guns and introduce wolves, but they are really more on the eco-terror commie side of things. They do show up to some of the same shows, but they're kind of pariah's even in the Dead scene, lol. I was out in Boulder for shows a few times over the last 5 years, went to some of my old stomping grounds, and the only "hippies" left out there are late 30's/early 40's+ moderates. What you're seeing are COMMIES. Revolutionary commies at that. Those people destroyed the left altogether, and essentially displaced people like myself out of the "left" (and at heart I still think of myself as lefty, but when I was in college being "far-left" meant you wanted the drug war to end, anti-interventionism, and maybe wanted a better social safety net that was transitory/short-term for when tragedy strikes, not long term welfare state bs) That's about all I can even think of, but people were a LOT less political at that time too. It wasn't "Bread & Circus" like it has been the last 8-10 years. But I digress... Oh, and since you moved back to Indiana and I am such an autist when it comes the the Dead/Jerry Garcia, there's an amazing instrumental cover of "Back Home in Indiana" from Jerry's "Compliments" album from 1974. If you like Texas Swing (ish) kind of Django/gypsy jazz, you should check it out here on YT ;) I'm ashamed to say I was a leftist, but I'll never be ashamed of being a Grateful Dead fanatic! Trump 2024!

[@robynperdieu3434]

​@@dresdenliamwow, someone else who's awake! I made the same comment. It started with the banks foreclosing on family farms in the 80s. The only way to survive was mega farms that treat animals terribly, more pollution per square foot than natural cleansing can stand, and more disease like salmonella. Farmers should never have had to pay property taxes and should have had some way to save their farms from foreclosure. By the way, international banks have engineered every financial upheavals in the country and the world.

I'm in my 60's. Growing up in a rural part of Wisconsin most of my classmate grew up on farms. The Federal and State Government through policies destroyed the family farm. As a kid everywhere we went we saw dairy cows on pasture. Most weekend we went and helped relatives on their farms. I learned the value of hard work and building a future for the next generation. This has all been destroyed in one generation. Any farms that still exist are Big Corporate Farms. Family Farmers had an opportunity to build wealth for their family and their community.

Its been a nightmare. County turned my area into a badger reserve. One more thing for my farmers out there, I was out by Grand Mesa Park, drove by what looked to me like an Elk herd farm, found that interesting, the elk were totally fenced in and looked like they were being raised. I dont know what happened to this University invention but ran across something called a power pod, they produce twice the energy of ugly wind power, they are small and can be placed in buildings anywhere. Assuming that wont pay investors of ugly, wasteful wind generators. Also saw a test property for hydrogen power almost 10 years ago and was told Japan had working nuclear fusion.

[@hoglefish]

The issue with wolves that no one talks about is that during the summer range season cattle in Wolf country, never get an opportunity to loaf due to the need for constant vigilance. This means that they are unable to put on weight like they would normally. In Montana and Idaho after wolf reintroduction ranchers I know of saw a 10 to 20% decrease in the fall weight of cattle coming off the forest and mountain range land. In a good year, a rancher may make 10-15%. The wolves are literally eating up all the profit, without even killing a cow simply by preventing cattle from gaining weight.

Education is the key. 33% think their food originated from the grocery store and 33% think farmers and ranchers are bad. That leaves the rest of us trying to convince them that they are in need of family owned ranches and farms. First time seeing your stuff on KZbin. Good job.

Subscribed; conservation biologist and agroecology here; I always appreciate some real experience. A lot of my contemporaries in conservation I am at odds with because I take my work from an biological and ecological perspective rather than an ideological one. Many times this puts me at odds with them and sided with the ranchers and loggers (a SELECTIVE cut won't cause harm if done properly, the term 'sustainable yield' was invented by the timber industry). So here's a few tips from my dept. that can help your bottom line: check dams on gullies increase pasture yields while reducing erosion. Agropastoralism is a fancy word for growing trees with your cattle; the shade and shelter can increase weight gains by 20% and improves survival rates. More I'd have to see the site in question.

These are the people who just get shoved to the side because they’re behind the scenes and no one worries about them until they get hungry or they run out of fuel. In other words when the supplies to New York run out only then are they important. Well I appreciate these families and all the hard work they do. I love my fruit and vegetables and especially my steaks and I am quite fond of being able to drive to take care of my business. Don’t get me wrong I love my horse but I’m not sure about using him for transportation and I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t be a fan of that either. I believe every issue these people have needs to be addressed no matter what it is. They are the backbone of our society and I for one appreciate their efforts. God bless.

[@scootter37]

Trinity, finding your channel and watching some of the topics you talk about really strikes a nerve and of course that's wolves. As a hunter that's hunted Colorado a few times but much more in NW Montana almost every year since 1991 for two weeks at a time DIY, I've seen the rise in the wolf numbers and decline in the deer numbers there first hand over the years. I believe there's more at play with why the wolves were brought back than simply using the endangered species act. What I'm going say is not a swipe at the "family farm or ranch" but is pointed toward the large corporations that dominate the beef industry, also the ones that import beef from outside the country. Which in my opinion should not be allowed anyways. I was shocked to find the US imports 3425 million pounds of beef. We are definitely selling out our family farms and ranches. At 50:50 you started to touch on just one of the reasons for wolf re introduction. Food supply and large Corporations. Consider the following point. When the wolves bring down the game populations perhaps to the point of closing hunting seasons. How much Venison will hunters no longer be able to provide for families? WHO would possibly benefit from a scenario of less venison available? One way or another the general population will consume protein via meat. If not venison, it'll probably be beef. So with that in mind consider the following and I'm not even mentioning the amount of meat from elk or other game. If 40,000 deer are shot in Colorado every year by hunters and we use the average of a typical deer weighing 150lbs, normally 1/3 is deboned meet. So 50lbs of deboned meet for the hunter and family. For sake of argument lets just say its all made into burger and no steaks. So that's 2 million pounds of venison burger provided for families which the big corporate beef farms have no financial gain from. The average ground beef price is $8.31 a pound. That means by the public eating venison, potentially the beef industry lost out on 16 million dollars of revenue. If we calculate steak into this equation then its even more money. This is just in Colorado. So calculate this number considering all the other states that have deer hunting. Michigan 275,000 deer yearly. Wisconsin 173,000 deer yearly. Montana about 50,000 yearly. Texas 500,000+ yearly. On and on and it becomes a really big number. Does the big corporate beef industry benefit indirectly from lower game populations, sure they do. The amount of cattle lost from wolves, a big corporate company could easily absorb. Not so with a smaller family size ranch, they simply don't play with those same big dollar amounts. A smaller family farm wants nothing to do with wolves on the landscape and understandably so. As with everything in United States, every industry is set up for the larger corporations to have better cost across the board. The "Beef industry" which is comprised of mainly corporate farms both inside and outside the US has lobbyist rubbing shoulders with law makers at state and federal levels to help push their interest. Big corporate farms especially foreign owned ones that import beef could careless about the small family farms and push agendas that benefit them solely, wolves being just one. Wolves will stress the small family farms with just one more thing like you said and the hunter buys more store bought meet due to lack of success. With low game numbers chances are that meat a hunter then buys comes from outside the U.S. due to us importing 50% of our beef. Importers love we are losing cattle ranches and have wolves. This same scenario can also be applied to the auto insurance industry and the big AG industry with less claims and less crop damage being the goal. In the united states we have about 1.5 million deer/car accidents which cost about 1.5 billion in damage. The insurance industry loves wolves and low game populations and they too have their lobbyist to push their interest. We could also mention the Big Timber Forest industry with the certified forest agenda. They too benefit from low deer numbers. Low deer numbers mean faster tree regeneration after cuttings. The reasons for wolves being brought back and left largely unchecked in numbers is connected to those who financially benefit and a for sure way to have low game populations is to let the wolves do their work 24/7/365. This is a view and an angle that mostly goes unheard but you started to touch on it when mentioning control of food. Its a rabbit hole for sure and big money is hidden behind it.

This is sad. Im on the remnants of land my family was gifted by the king in CT. It was a farm until the 1950's when it got chopped up and sold off. I have a small house on the remaining 19 acres. Last year I was sued for building a chicken coup (on skis) without a permit. The taxes are 12,000 a year. Black bears are absolutely out of control. Im close to selling off the rest and moving to my land up north in NH. It would be sad to have the land leave the family its been in for over 300 years. Not that much of it remains.

I grew up on a farm almost 70yrs ago in MD that my great grandfather started, then grandfather took over. This so angers me that it's become govt against farmers/ranchers. Why introduce wolves? Because it's just another way they are trying to take the food off our table. Those who have no idea where their food even comes from will be the loudest to yell, when grocery shelves go empty.

Cedars and juniper don't take much water. They live without water for years. That willow would suck up more than a cedar, by far

Maybe you have a different kind of cedar than we do in the Northwest, ours only grows wear there is a fair amount of water sometimes it may be underground but it's there, and close.

[@s.mic.3329]

@jeanettegray7462 yes, they're a different type and grow in the high desert, with no water. It takes 20 years for our cedars to grow 3 ft high. With a bit of water, they grow faster, but not much. You have western red cedars in the north. Ours are a juniper cedar.

[@richardjohnson2965]

I love rural people, small towns, cattle ranchers, truckers, people who actually work for a living, and know what real work is. My wife grew up on a farm, and my girls loved going to visit grandma and grandpa, at the farm. They learned to ride horses and throw hay bales, picked the garden, carried water, drive the tractors, tend the cows, do other farm work..etc. I grew up small town, and learned to hunt, shoot, and work outdoors. My oldest daughter is a teacher in a small town ( much better than the city), and my youngest daughter and her husband have a farm in a northern state. Her husband grew up farming, and they have horses and cows. Life is work…but it’s enjoyable work.

As a retired oil refinery worker, the overwhelming amount of "propane" is produced as a by product of refining gasoline and diesel. Natural gas is made up of methane and ethane, and is produced and separated at the well. While bacteria is always breaking down organic matter, oil and gas fields require the right geological features to capture and hold the gas and oil. If that was not so, there would be oil and gas everywhere. I straddle the urban rural divide and it is one of our biggest societal problems.

[@deutzallis6497]
