Hello John --

As pictures of empty grocery store meat counters began to compete with pictures of euthanized livestock herds, the LaRouche movement is acting. At last weekend's Schiller Institute conference, a panel of American farm leaders stunned their international audience: the system of food production in the United States is rapidly reaching a breaking point. They also made clear that the pandemic is but the last straw in a decades-long assault on our independent producers by a global system run by cartels and financiers.

Tonight's Fireside Chat will host several of the participants in that panel.

The farm sector typifies the predatory practices imperiling humanly essential sectors of the U.S. economy. Big cartels, financed by Wall Street, hedge funds, and foreign “investors” dominate the supply chain seeking the lowest price possible for the farmers’ labor. The cartels’ processing plants employ low wage workers under savage working conditions and were an easy target for the virus. Reorganizing the farm sector, once shown to be capable of feeding the entire world while providing its farmers a living wage, is an imperative coming out of this crisis. And this is urgent. Providing a reliable food supply to nations in the world still targeted by the virus, like the nations of Africa, will determine whether this plague results in a mass genocide.
