There's a vast difference between land that is fertile for commercial purposes and land that can be used to eke out a subsistence farmer's living. The former needs, among other things, access to a fair amount of commercial infrastructure. The latter does not, and is useful to feed one person at crop densities well below what would be commerically viable.
Also, $8000 per person would be far less than government entities in the US spend supporting the homeless.
- nradov 7y agoHow much farming have you done? If there is arable land somewhere (other than a protected park) then the infrastructure will get built. In any case it's going to take a lot more than $8000 to get a small subsistence farm going. I'm still waiting for your list of free farm land.
