John Mellencamp Rain On The Scarecrow



Uploaded by: ottawa2006
Video Description:
Classic John Mellencamp at his Best. My Great Grand parents were family farmers in Union Mills Indiana and John Mellencamp's Video expresses concern for the plight of Family Farmers and the fate of our Farms and the way of life that is being destroyed in the process. We are slowly watching America fade away as The Family Farmers become a thing of the past. This video explains the urgent need to address the fate of one of America's Greatest assets and that is the Family Farmer. I think that this video expresses this concern better than any other Music Video before or since. What do you Think?

This is a message for yeahgoahead and Quckbuick87 both of you sound like a pair of morons. You have NO idea the plight of the American Farmer. Ethanol is still in the experimental stages at best it will be another twenty years before we can count on it for alternative farmers. Isn't it about time the farmers were making money and living above the poverty level? Yeahgoahead where do you get your statistics from? You both need to shut the hell up!!!!

I wasn't even going to respond because of your complete ignorance. You need to know what your talking about. You say Ethanol is in the experimental stages ...where do you live in the Land of Oz. Ethanol has been around for more then 20 years the high price of oil has created a market for it. What do you think is driving the price of corn so high the good will of the market.You like to call people names yet don't know what your talking about. Go vote for your hero BARRACK HUSSEIN OBAMA.

Yeah I know.. being a liberal Democrat you would be supporting alternative farmers...where does this type of farmer live in San Francisco ?

I have lived on a dairy farm my whole life try in upstate New York. When you live the life of a farmer then you can run your mouth until then shut your pie hole!!!!!!!!
First of all ... ( 1 week ago by dadsgirl1230)
First of all Einstein ethanol is still in the experimental stages. If not why isn't it offered at gas stages for sale. Because it costs twice as much to produce as oil. Corn is not the only ingredient of ethanol there is also switch grass, and cow feces that are also being used. I have lived on a farm all my life and know the plight of the farmer. Yeahgoahead I could use a big mouth like you on the farm here I will show you a real days work. An open invitation to you?
Next to you I might ... ( 1 week ago by yeahgoahead)
Next to you I might as well be Einstein. Ethanol is not in any experimental stages are you kidding or what. Let me enlighten you in the midwest there are thousands of gas stations that sell Ethanol. Well if your on a dairy farm how can you speak for a farmer who raises arg. products ? You don't have ethanol in great amounts in the northeast because its not produced in this area. I know what a hard days work is I work for the railroad.
If you think ... ( 1 week ago by yeahgoahead)
If you think Liberal Obama supporting Melloncamp is concerned about your plight don't kid yourself. God bless and I'll look forward to further debate.
I am speaking about ... ( 1 week ago by dadsgirl1230)
I am speaking about the northeast where I am from. All the ethanol plants are in the midwest because corn is so plentiful there. I am speaking for farmers as a WHOLE. This DOES affect me what do you think I feed my cows bark the price of corn for feed has skyrocketed. The bottom line is what the farmers are getting for prices whether that be corn, milk, or beef that's the bottom line. I DO NOT support Obama never have never will. We need to stick together maybe as one voice we may have some pull
