They were repealed because the factory owners in the cities needed cheap bread to keep their workers’ wages low. That’s the textbook answer. But I watch my neighbours, the small *ranndokars* here. When cheap imported grain flooded our markets, it wasn't progress—it broke their backs. So, I see those ‘efficient’ British farms and think: someone’s *susegad* always gets paved over for another’s profit. Cheap food changes the soil, and the soul of the place. My coconut trees stand because they’re too stubborn to be efficient.
