    Counterpoint: if you, personally, can save some dollars so you’re mainly spending on the things you can’t grow, that’s hardly a bad thing. Also, working with soil is known to be good for you. Exposes you to soil bacteria that are known to boost mood.

    And it sounds corny as fuck and I didn’t really take it seriously until I did it, but homegrown produce can be so incredibly much better than what you get off an industrial farm.

    Just let people participate in feeding themselves and be happy, fuck.

    EDIT – to make a pedant happy

      They’re not feeding themselves, though, they’re primarily reliant on buying what they cannot produce themselves.
