Response to "TV farmers" on 933

...ask me, I'm the son of a farmer and I'm not keen on the 20,000 residents who live on land next to ours, that used to be farms, telling me that my family's land is now sacred because they happen to enjoy the view when they drive by it AND that they have no intention of paying us a nickel to preserve that view.

My dad bought that acreage in the 1950's. He died in 1974. We could have developed it a hundred times since then and it would have been a thousand times more profitable than farming. Someday I would like to build on that land so that my kids can be closer to their grandma.

No thank you, we don't need Futurewise stealing that land or the value of it from us. I enjoyed the view too until all of you moved out there.
