Re: Why are farmers singled out for welfare?

Don't worry you won't starve -
Hi Joe
I probably shouldn't answer this but the government has always used
food as a political tool. Look what the government did when they were
po'd at Russia. You might not starve now but the farmer only gets 3-5
cents for a loaf of bread or a box of cereal. When hog prices were down
to 10 cents or less a pound awhile back did you see the prices come down
in the stores, no way. It takes almost 40 cents a pound to produce. Wait
until you run all the family farmers out of business and the
corporations control it all which is coming, then see who starves.
Just yesterday they closed a feed business down here in town because
the farmers couldn't pay their bills so the feed store couldn't pay it's
bills.
