I thought we were talking about real world economics and not some hypothetical zombie apocalypse.
Farmers don't live in a separate universe from the rest of society and if the free market says one pound of wheat is equal to one hour of software development then both are valid way to contribute to society.
Agriculture is a important part of the economy but its not the only part.
Subsistence farming nations are very poor compared to more diverse economies as farmers with more access to equipment and materials can produce far more food per capita.
I read the usual BS arguments that group A of people is better than Group B of people because A's C is way better than B's C.
Hmm... I guess everyone found out in this thread (by its own means) how the human society is and will be problematic.
This thread started with Shippou giving a wake up call on the matter as he seeked advices and insights.
Then, people started describing their ideas of a better system and world, showing a slight cooperation. But then, egocentrism comes back and now I read a discussion over misunderstandings and things that does not matter to society, only to each one's ego.
That is the problem in every system, the human factor and its ego. Period.
