It’s a completely fair point when this will help rural conservatives by cracking mega farms, reduce supply and help the farmers who are getting destroyed by overproduction and Republican policy. But it won’t help, too much brainwashing that socialism is bad when they beg for socialism to keep themselves alive.

See, this is also indicative of what I was just talking about.

How do you think most farmers farm today? Even smaller ones? I'll give you a hint: putting 5 chickens in a pen doesn't cut it. And besides, even if this law did pass, all it would cause is for us to import the same quantities of food but from foreign places without these regulations, creating the same offshoring you so love to bash.

Also, imagine thinking that "overproduction" is some sort of capitalist problem when the entire issue, to the extent that it exists or is an issue, is caused by government farm subsidies that distort market forces lmao.
