the song is about how farmers are gettin' screwed over by a gov't who doesn't care about what keeps this nation ticking. all they see is an oppurtunity to fill their wallets a little more. when mustaine says "the answers in the sky" i believe that he is talking about asking God for help. he has openly admitted that he is a christian so i think some of his songs reflect that.
I don't think you can say when he was or wasnt a christian. Only he can answer to that. Even if he wasnt, what else could "the answer's in the sky" mean? When we think of heaven we think of it being in the sky. What else is in the sky? Birds, planes, Superman? Nope those dont make sense (well superman kind of). But anyways take it how you want, thats what interpreting the song is about. Relating it to your life.

when this was written he wasn't a christian. and i really doubt he'd be writing about farmers specifically. millions of people are screwed every day.

if anything this is saying that regardless of whether someone tries to shut everything down there will always be people there going against the grain.
