Coronavirus Humour (And conspiracy Theories)

The Owens are an interesting comparison. Their large family had clearly increased their overall impact on the planet but I wonder if their chosen lifestyle means its not that much more than a typical English urban couple with 2 kids.
My question is can this lifestyle be sustained. The farm covers 2000 acres and is clearly not intensive. Assuming the eldest boy gets married and follows in the footsteps of the parents what happens to the other eight kids ? Do they all marry and have nine kids and each of those eight couples farm 2000 acres. I know that is very unlikely but if they did, the extended family would be farming most of upland Britain within the next 100 years. Thus that rate of reproduction is not sustainable without stepping up from an extensive farming situation to smaller units very intensively farmed in such a way to support a very large family.
I thought this might exercise the minds of the greens but it has gone silent.
Another set of cranks, the rewilders would do wonders for Clive and Amanda`s farm, as would the vegans.

it all depends on how able the children are my grandfather was one of ten all the children were set up on farms so here I am three generations later as far as I know there is me and two others still in farming so my grandfather's brothers and sisters all had children so that generation my grandfather had thirty-odd nephews and nieces so natural wastage seems to have taken care of the problem there are less and fewer farmers as farm get bigger and we all know the problems of survival some of us do and some don't and go into industry

Police investigating a serious assault questioned the victim who was swathed in bandages and struggling to talk.They got "It was a FBI who attacked me".
The officers were shocked and said "Are you sure it was ' The Feds' who did this"?

The victims brother entered the ward as they said this and explained it was a Fukcing Big Indian who attacked him
