(An English farmer’s account of the changes he is seeing)
as quoted by:  Andrew Sullivan
From Sullivan’s opinion piece / article:  “Our President’s Emotional Bait and Switch“
Which I found on www.msn.com at:  http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/our-president%e2%80%99s-emotional-bait-and-switch/ar-AAnKTg4
That, in turn referenced the New York Times at:   http://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/01/opinion/an-english-sheep-farmers-view-of-rural-america.html?ref=opinion&_r=0
Sullivan’s article originally appearing in:  “Daily Intelligencer“
Which is a section under New York Magazine
