#1 They're coming at this problem from the wrong direction. As we here at the 'Burg know, Farmin B Hard. Rather than calling on the citizens to grow more food, why not just call on the citizens to starve less? For Cuba! Viva la Revolution!

#5 In the 1970 election [in Chili], Salvador Allende of the Socialist Party of Chile (then part of the "Popular Unity" coalition which included the Communists, Radicals, Social-Democrats, dissident Christian Democrats, the Popular Unitary Action Movement, and the Independent Popular Action became the leader of Chili.

A friend fled Chili during this time and came to the U.S.. He said the Allende government appropriated the large farms and ranches and divided up the land into smaller parcels and gave these to the peasants who worked the larger farms/ranches. The livestock, poultry and hogs were also divided up. He said that the newly minted small farm owners didn’t grow enough to sustain themselves or the livestock and chickens. They ate the seed corn and feed. They ended up eating all the livestock and poultry and the small farms went fallow and they had nothing to eat.

It would be like if Antifa/BLM tried to sustain themselves in CHOP.
