YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Brad Watson has spent his adult life milking cows at 5:30 AM on a farm that has been in his family for 140 years. But today, the barn is empty and the legacy is gone. We’re performing an autopsy on Butter Ridge Farm to see how a "Golden Age" for farmers turned into an extraction machine for Wall Street investors.

From the "Tariff Tax" that made equipment repairs impossible to the energy deregulation that tripled electric bills overnight, we look at the material reality behind the political slogans. And we follow the money to see who actually profits when the American family farm collapses—including some very familiar names in the Vice President's investment portfolio.

He played stupid games. Now he’s winning the ultimate stupid prize.
