Please don't post in the flamewar style to HN. It's the opposite of the curious conversation we're looking for.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

This is an opinion. Do you have supporting data for anything other than perhaps environmental matters which are global in scale? This is HN, not Reddit.

It isn't a matter of opinion. Any graph showing farmer suicide rates charted over time should get you started if you feel the need to fact check my claims. You can follow up with comparisons of healthcare outcomes between industrialized nations, a comparison of median rural household income vs gdp, etc. It takes maybe 15 minutes, do your own homework.
