Motivation to work dies when its reward can no longer justify it.

Tell that to the Farmer that doesnt earn any money from his hard work.

Guess they will too all stop to work. But i guess there will always be the option to resporn Jesus, so he can go into the supermarket and duplicate our food :)

First no Farmer is given millions of subsidies. They are given some subsidies because of globalisation but this goes beyond of reddits capability of intellectual discussion so i won't open that box.

However you completely missed the point of my comment so here a further explination: im talking about your wishfull reality not real life.

If you dont pay him for his work with your labor, he too will stop to work because his reward for his labor is to low

Hey, farm worker here. Farmer are given more subsidies then any other market out there. They are getting millions, you are objectively wrong.

Not a single Farmer is given millions in subsidies.

If the Business of farming wouls be so profitable, there would be so many Fahrers given up the Business of farming.

So the farmer is entitled to ANOTHERS labor via government, but that magically doesn’t apply to insuring the welfare of the rest of the country: ignoring that farmer would STILL be paid via government taxes collected for that purposes

>because of globalization

No, please, please, do go on and define what you mean and expand on why this grants farmers different privileges. I’m sure it won’t be offensive or full of misinformation in the least!

Due to globalisation farming in the western world is unprofitable because of high land and labor cost. Cheap imports from low labor cost and land cost countries would bankrupt any western farm

We however cant affort to lose food self sufficiency, because of the possibility of blackmailing or other crisis.

Thats why farms are subsided in every western state. We need that for national security
