It certainly appears to be painful to you that people know anything you don't. You probably go down to the market and tell the farmers what the price of their goods are. Well I do. If I'm not happy with what they are offering for the price they want, negotiate or go elsewhere. |

In my understanding, a business flooded which did not purchase flood insurance is just out. Which is as it should be IMHO. The damage looks to me from regulatory action, not the chinese weapon itself. I can't see how a contract[1] could have an exclusion removed ex post facto. But I'm open to other ideas. [1] We do not of course know the language of every pertinent contract in the class. It’s hard for me to reply to you when you reference the Chinese weapon. Most people I know call it Trump’s virus. But aside from that, I’m worried about most of the small businesses that we depend on. LBS and restaurants in particular. I think that we're in agreement. A very large number of the Democrats employed or had intimate relations with what the DHS called "spies" Biden, his brother and his son all were being paid off by China in LARGE amounts of capital. (I think it was said that a more or less penniless Biden started living in $20 Million homes from the first time he was elected. While the attention was being focused on Hunter Biden's job for a Ukrainian energy company why was Nancy Pelosi's son completely ignored? He was in the same sort of position. How was it that Paul Sr., Nancy's husband was getting no-bid government contracts in areas in which he had no experience nor expertise? The normal way in which China bribes people is through their family members so that there's no direct link from the Chinese government to the bribed official. Tommy boy, how would you know "The normal way in which China bribes people"? Have you been to China? Do you speak Chinese (any dialect)? Where do you get your brilliant insights into Chinese policy? Or is this just another one of your bizarre fantasies? The way I know things is that my best friend who saved my life was an NCIS team leader who spent 20 years hunting Chinese spies in the military. Tommy, Tommy! Calm down. Of course you know all them there secret guys. Take your medicine before posting as your frantic efforts to show the world how wonderful you are (way down deep inside) is sort of fraying at the edges. It certainly appears to be painful to you that people know anything you don't. You probably go down to the market and tell the farmers what the price of their goods are. You are sort of... no very... dumb. Of course the people going to the market set the price for the farmer's goods. If my wife heads out to the market to buy, oh say bamboo shoots and has it in her mind that 60 baht a half kilo is a reasonable price and the farmer asks, again say, 70 baht a half kg then my wife doesn't buy and he can just haul his bamboo shoots home again. All you need to do is look at Amazon, or Walmart. They sell cheap people flock to buy from them. -- Cheers, John B. |

I'm guessing you are talking about these things called "farmer's markets" that are common in big cities. No farmer who owns and works on a farm uses these terms like you just did. A farmer is someone who grows corn or soybeans on hundreds/thousands of acres. He tills, plants, combines the crops. And when a farmer talks about markets, he is specifically referring to the Chicago Board of Trade price for corn and soybeans. And he will call his local grain elevator to get the spot price for the grain locally. And this idea of going to the "farmer's market" to buy vegetables and other nonsense, would be very alien to an old time farmer. He had a vegetable garden near the house. He grew his own vegetables in his garden. He did not go to the downtown of a big city and buy vegetables from a "farmer" standing on a concrete city block who trucked the vegetables in. |

Well, I'm sure that I can remember "way back" further than you but I do remember "farmers", at least that is what they called themselves, setting up roadside sales businesses selling primarily to the "City Slickers" at elevated prices. -- Cheers, John B. |

Citrus farmers, walnut farmers, vegetable farmers, fruit farmers like strawberry farmers still do. But according to Russell, you have to have a thousand acres of corn to qualify as a farmer.- In case you are unaware of it, the standard farm is only 40 acres. |

What is 'standard' really depends on what you are farming and where. Plus, as discussed recently, the size of many 'standard farms' has increased to keep them commercially viable. |
