[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The way the term is used on here seriously rubs me the wrong way. Like, here's a made up, but common, example: That school has 30% FARMs. Pretty soon it's going to have 40% FARMs and property values will go way down. Why not just say the school has a lot of kids from lower income families. Calling them [b]FARMs is so de-humanizing[/b]. Also i'm sure plenty have people come on here for the first time and wonder what the hell FARMs even means.[/quote] Because the term doesn’t refer to humans. It’s not a measurement of people.[/quote]
