Here is a great article by Dr. Wayne Brough, discussing the implications of the Farm Bill. Click Here.
Just a taste of the article:
Farm policies in the United States continue to distort markets through government interventions that benefit farmers at the expense of consumers. Despite rhetoric to the contrary and the sentimentality of saving the family farm, the subsidies and crop programs Congress is peddling do little for the small farmer.
Amen.
It is unbelievable that Congress would be pushing to redistribute money from poorer people to richer people in a time of higher gas and food prices. The sugar cartel in this country is criminal.
