https://www.context.news/just-transition/could-farmers-protests-fuel-backlash-to-the-eus-green-deal BRUSSELS – Europe's farmers are angry, staging tractor blockades and noisy rallies from Romania to Germany in recent months to protest an earnings squeeze they blame partly on green policies including pesticide bans and nitrogen emissions curbs. One of farmers' main complaints is high business costs - in part from the expense of complying with EU environmental targets aimed at cutting planet-warming carbon emissions and protecting nature. They also say price pressures and increasing competition from imports are hitting their income.
Marx The first phase of communism, therefore, cannot yet provide justice and equality; differences, and unjust differences, in wealth will still persist, but the exploitation of man by man will have become impossible because it will be impossible to seize the means of production--the factories, machines, land, etc.
The EUROPEAN UNION force farmers to lower production & make it so expensive to produce food they have to shut down operation. The government's then buy up the land for pennies on the pound, or if the farmers refuse they simply put in compulsory purchase orders on the farms . Families that have farmed for generations replaced by box ticking beurocrats that have absolutely no idea how to grow food .
Hundreds of farmers on Monday used tractors to block access to key ports in Germany, intensifying their protests against the government’s plans to cut agriculture subsidies. Around 100 tractors were parked on strategic routes leading to Hamburg’s port area, disrupting access to Germany’s biggest such facility and one of the busiest in Europe for international container shipping. Other smaller ports along Germany’s northern coast — Wilhelmshaven and Bremerhaven — were also hit by tractor blockades. Police at Bremerhaven said talks were ongoing with farmers in a bid to ease access to the harbour area. Some 1,500 tractors were also holding up traffic across Hamburg, police said.
