re: Free farm land for immigrants?

Obviously OP was satire, but truthfully, these types of programs have been used before. The failure rate of those Farms is staggeringly high. Quickest way to failure on a farm is poor management. For years the govt tried to prop up minority self owned farms, which eventually further enlarged the large farming operations. They just swallowed up the acreage that the failed groups were farming. Landowners got frustrated with incompetence, improved the land to where a decent farmer would rent it.
