MIKE LEE: Roscoe Filburn planted 23 acres . . . . The government said, “No, you can plant wheat on only 11.1 acres.” It's about control.

If you think they won’t try it again, look at what China has done to people growing a garden in their back yards.
And never forget that Democrat MI Gov Whitmer closed small garden centers and cordoned off SEED BINS so you couldn’t plant a garden in 2020.

It’s about control. https://t.co/pjjcGxHhtT

2. In 1938, Congress passed the Agricultural Adjustment Act so the feds could dictate how much wheat Americans could grow on their land. They set quotas, telling farmers like Roscoe Filburn exactly how many acres of wheat they could plant. Notice was sent on cards like this one. pic.twitter.com/L4JS24HTF0
