We will soon witness another massive shock in fertilizer markets, which means higher prices for vegetables, fruits, and other commodities.

Well, perhaps self-reliance, small farms and domestic farming, energy and chemical production would be a really good idea.

The funny thing is pretty much all Americans would agree with that statement.

The problem is that they simply can't get it through their heads that these things rely on cheap labor to be economically sustainable endeavors. Does a simple small farm include an office and a bookkeeper so the farmers can have a 401k and health coverage? Does the chemical plant give their employees enough paid vacation to satisfy the voters that don't work there?

Oh, you don't need all these benefits? You're just looking to gain skills in exchange for wage? You aren't welcome in the US workforce, sorry.
