Joel Salatin Quote
It was the fact that we were selling dead animals. You see, farmers are only supposed to sell live animals to processors and marketers who are supposed to make all the money—those notorious middlemen. After all, we couldn’t have all that middleman money going to farmers. No, that wouldn’t be right. Farmers are supposed to be peasants, serfs, impoverished dolts, remember?
