Another point that hasn't been mentioned is what do 
the organic farm operations do with the large profits
they make from their high priced yuppie foods?

I've come to know a great many organic farm operations in
California over the past 25 years via selling organically
approved pesticides to them.  I've found the owners and
high salaried managers of most of these big organic farm 
operations buy big homes and vehicles and live the the same 
highly resource consumptive lifestyles as industrial 
farmers with similar high incomes.  Thus I feel
the ultimate objective of organic farmers is the same
as industrial farmers: making enough money to
support an affluent lifestyle.
