Working for anyone else, other than yourself, makes you a SLAVE to others. When you work for yourself and your family, then you are frugal with your resources and develop them into abundance for yourself and family, and anyone else that may need that part of abundance to survive. The Agrarian Nation or the Farming community is the backbone of any Great Nation, and when it fails to supply for its own Nation, then it is a failure for all of that Nation society. Sure we need manufacturing for the tools, but we can not eat and sustain ourselves from the product of that manufacturing. Manufacturing is dependent on the Farming community for it to survive also. Without food to eat then the workers become weak and can not continue to do the manufacturing to make the Farming community easier to maintain.
