I think this was taken from a book that was printed in China or something. I remember there was some controversy about it.

These days, talk of farmers is mostly talk of corporate boards of directors, stock prices, foreign markets and how to swallow up the last holdouts from the old family farm days.

Kudos on the Paul Harvey reference though, I always loved listening to that guy.

I can teach anyone to be a Democrat. Just promise everyone everything and say you’ll pay for it by taxing billionaires.

If this is your response to the Bloomberg issue -- you need to go read the full transcript of Bloomberg's speech.

ps - I'm not necessarily a fan of Bloomberg's. He's added a bit of news to the primary process because he's like Trump -- says outrageous things. Didn't seem to hurt Trump.

you also have to teach people to go on feelings alone rather than actually think about something.

Paul practiced redefined the phrase "the rest of the story".

from your link-

For its part, the Bloomberg campaign said its candidate wasn’t talking about today’s farmers; he was talking about how to help educate Americans for better-paying, higher-skilled jobs in the “information age.”
suuure. now explain how education causes one to 'have a lot more gray matter.'

Corporate farmers perhaps, not real farmers though.
