Reasons Why BC Liberal Farmers Need To Be Protected

By Donna Adams


Having a piece of land means that one can run several projects on the land. Most of these activities can be used as sources of income for the individuals, helping them to survive through the times. Among these human activities is farming, which is among the ancient activities that people have engaged in to fend for themselves and their families. In this article, BC liberal farmers, and the reasons why they need to be protected will be discussed in detail.

Farming is what creates food security. The fight against any farmers would mean that the society will, at one point lack food or have insufficient to provide for the people. That will happen in the event the government does not stop the encroachment on the agricultural land own by these farmers.

It is an outright disregard of the basic human rights to take what someone else depends on to survive. Most of the rural farmers make their living out of the pieces or parcels of land that they inherited from their forefathers or even bought. Therefore, when an individualistic move in the name of private development or even civilization takes away what belongs to these poor majority, it is viewed as lack of respect for human life because they are being killed.

The struggle between the poor and the rich is not developmental. Creation of social classes impacts on the way people begin to look at each other, with the rich believing to be superior or even demigods while the poor live like slaves. Any nation or society that is bedevilled with this phenomenon will only retrogress, eventually leading to an uprising, especially by the poor majority against the rich minority. This will happen if the attack on farmers does not stop.

The lack of support by the government exposes the hypocrisies that are manifested in the political arena. This, in turn, will point at huge flaws within the government structures and cause mistrust among people. Besides, there will be difficulty carrying out normal functions of the government in the case where the subjects do not support the government. To avoid getting to that level, financial aid needs to be given to these farmers.

Speaking of oppression, it is important to realize that when you oppress a fellow human being, you are oppressing yourself. According to the philosophical teachings, the oppressor and the oppressed are both dehumanized. When people are oppressed, the individuals who look on without doing anything and those perpetuating the oppression are also being oppressed.

If anyone wants to bring development down to the people, it is important to ask those people what kind of development they need. Failure to do this would amount to imposing development on the people, and they are bound to revolt. For there to be ownership, let the people themselves decide what they want to do with their pieces of land.

The development is good, but it must also have a human face. What this means is that people should not suffer just because some developmental project has been brought to them. This is the case of the private developers against the farmers, which must be changed in time to avoid future adverse repercussions.
