SPATA, Greece (AP) — In an olive grove on the outskirts of Athens, grower Konstantinos Markou pushes aside the shoots of new growth to reveal the stump of a tree — a roughly 150-year-old specimen, he said, that was among 15 cut down on his neighbor’s land by thieves eager to turn it into money.
I live next to a bunch of them actually, there’s a crisis because no one can start working in that field because land is too expensive. Farmers are poor in the sense that they don’t make much a year, they’re fucking rich once they sell the land they’ve owned for the past 40 years.
So you are excited that these farmers are now forced to sell to a big corpo farm conglomerate, since their crop has been killed off and wont make ends meet for 3-5 years?
You sound positively giddy about more consolidation of wealth. Like youre eager for more poverty.
