Support the Dutch Farmers; Their Protest is Our Own
The Netherlands, judged by many to have the most advanced and efficient agricultural production in the world, has been wracked for weeks with protests from thousands of its farmers. They have blocked key food distribution centers with tractors, creating empty grocery store shelves. Last week, Dutch fishermen joined them, blocking ports with their boats. Similar farmer demonstrations, in support of the Dutch farmers, are breaking out in Germany, Poland and Italy.
