Much bigger than that. The big Ag friendly laws are extremely unpopular. 250 MILLION farm workers! That is 2/3 of the entire population of the US! More farm workers protested than we have as an entire labor force here!

It's not 250 million farm workers. The number you quote is the total strength of different labor unions that called for a strike in support of farmers.

  That's fine. In fact that improves the picture for me significantly. Nice catch, thank you. Amazing show of opposition solidarity that is larger than the US labor force. And they get it. With those laws a whole bunch of people would get devalued ways of life changing all kinds of side effects are highly undesirable.
