Bulk of Farm Aid go to the Rich Corporate Farms.

Trump's brand of Socialism is alive and well. I've long argued that everyone supports taking from one and giving to someone else, the only difference is which way the money flows.

Did ya never think how there are such big & wealthy farms???? Because for many years, they've put the Mom & Pop farms out of business and what few are remaining are of course in the minority...….. SO OF COURSE THE BULK OF FUNDS WOULD GO TO CORPRATE FARMS

 

[Dekster]

This has always been the case. Read somewhere years ago it was designed this way because family farmers were too proud to accept anything that looked like direct welfare benefits.

Well no shit!

The payments are based upon acres harvested and amount produced. So by default the farms with the most land will get the most money.

I have spoken out against these payment often; but this is just a dumb thing to complain about.

No it isn't. It's great that you have spoke out about them but you (like me) generally seem to argue principles as opposed to party politics.

The argument is that it is wrong to take from one to give to another. If that is the argument, those who argue that all should condemn this.

Then Condemn it on the grounds it is wrong to take from one to give to another...who it is going to is irrelevant on those grounds.

The bulk of all farm aid has gone to corporations milking the system for more money. I see huge "farms" out in NE Texas "growing" maize corn with zero irrigation, and the stalks are nearly white and dry as a bone.

Maybe I need some agriculture guy to tell me this is not deliberate crop failure for the purpose of getting farm aid. I don't pretend to be an expert, but it looks highly suspicious.

And, Corporate welfare is bullshit.

I do not believe it is wrong to see that all are provided for. My argument is everyone supports Socialist programs despite the rhetoric. It just depends on who is receiving the money.

I will argue that the reason this is being done is lame. The "great negotiator" can't negotiate.

When growing corn for grain, it needs to be a dry as possible. Farmers get penalized for moisture content above a certain percentage when they sell.

As a few of us have pointed out here...….Of course corporate farms would get the bulk of the funds......1.) Cause they hold the bulk of farmland 2) there's not that many family farms left to get any funds

I'm just basing my argument on all the arguments I've read. It's OK with me what ever you want to call it.

The argument has been it is wrong to take from one to give to another. Either that is true with those who argue that or it isn't.
