If you want to succeed at the new farming --
sow lies
Distribute them widely, water them with fears, and wait while
they ripen --
harvest
Congratulations, you have raised America’s greatest cash
crop --
outrage
It’s the new plastic and people are getting rich --
trust me
If you don’t mind a little dirt, the terrific thing about
the new farming is this:
it pays.
