No farm subsidies actually restrict the availability of a variety of foods by encouraging monoculture farming. And monoculture farming is actually killing our soil and harming the environment.actually, it controls the flow of food, so food isn't sitting in silos rotting. Fields planting different crop when that crop is needed. so many other programs that bring food to the grocer.I enjoy food.Farm subsides need to be done away with.
You incorrectly assume that ending farm subsidies would end all farms.
Ten Reasons to Cut Farm Subsidies
www.cato.orgEnd Farm Subsidies by Brian Phillips | Capitalism Magazine
According to the Small Business Administration, 50 percent of all new businesses fail within the first five years. There are many reasons why so many businesses fail, such as an insufficient demand for the product or service, an inability to obtain capital, or production inefficiencies...www.capitalismmagazine.com
Your links are laughable. trade, fk china.
and every program known to made is corrupt. every fking one of them. shut it all down. Why give GM a bailout? what was that about? I never agreed to that. What about Chrysler earlier? What about all the green initiative subsidies? I never see any one of you anti farmers shitting on those programs. Stop spending period. stop it all then. use that mantra,
I'm sorry your head exploded when hit with facts!Trump is not running a Keynesian Economy. He is a crony capitalist stealing money & bailing out his favorite Zombie companies.You don't know the difference between socialism and Keynesian EconomicsTrump tapping into his supporters enthusiasm for socialism.
The US economy is 70% consumer based & only 11% manufacturing. So best way to stimulate is to put more money into the hands of consumers during recessions & lower deficits during boom times.
Republican economics caused 10 JOB KILLING RECESSIONS in the last 63 years!!!
Democrats only had recession 1 in 71 years!!!
Every Republicant president in History caused JOB KILLING RECESSIONS!!!!!!
Factually false.
There has never been a Republican President in History that didn't cause JOB KILLING RECESSIONS!!!!!! Republicans CAUSED 10 of last 11 JOB KILLING RECESSIONS!!!!!!
I DARE YOU TO PROVE THIS WRONG!!!
so under every republican president, creating jobs killed recessions. Well hell yeah, way to go GOP!I'm sorry your head exploded when hit with facts!Trump is not running a Keynesian Economy.

They stand for nothing.To Democrats, feeding the poor is evil when Trump does it.
They are supposedly for peace and Trump is the most peaceful President....maybe ever.
They supposedly care about the blacks, and Trump did more for THE BLACKS in less than a year than obama did in 8. Yet, supposedly the most racist President ever and a nazi even though Israel named a train station after Trump.
Supposedly Trump took the China disease lightly when I keep posting the compilation of the left wing media attacking Trump for saying the coronavirus was worse than the flu and called him racist for cutting travel from China.
We could imagine what these losers would say if he didn't get bailouts to the farmers.
There is no normal.My farmer friends I drink beer with love Our President.I'm sure that the upcoming election has no bearing on this...right?
For the American farmers President Trump counts on for support, the government money is flowing faster than ever.
Federal payments to farmers are projected to hit a record $46 billion this year as the White House funnels money to Mr. Trump’s rural base in the South and Midwest ahead of Election Day.
The gush of funds has accelerated in recent weeks as the president looks to help his core supporters who have been hit hard by the double whammy of his combative trade practices and the coronavirus pandemic. According to the American Farm Bureau, debt in the farm sector is projected to increase by 4 percent to a record $434 billion this year and farm bankruptcies have continued to rise across the country.
Farmers are not the only constituency benefiting from the president’s largess: He has promised $200 prescription drug cards to millions of seniors, approved $13 billion in aid to Puerto Rico, which could help his prospects in Florida, and he directed his Agriculture Department include letters signed by him in millions of food aid boxes that are being distributed to the poor.
“There are both economic and political motivations for these payments,” said Patrick Westhoff, who directs University of Missouri’s agriculture research center.
Last week, the Office of Special Counsel determined that Mr. Trump’s Agriculture secretary, Sonny Perdue, had improperly used his position to push the president’s re-election by promising more help for farmers. At an August event in North Carolina, Mr. Perdue violated ethics laws when he promoted Mr. Trump’s re-election during remarks about the Farmers to Families Food Box Program, saying: “That’s what’s going to continue to happen — four more years — if America gets out and votes for this man, Donald J. Trump.”
All normal folk love this President.
Hmm
I think that there is.
All human behavior exists on a continuum therefore the entirety of the continuum is "normal" human behavior. If all behaviors are "normal" there is for all intents and purposes no normal.
But, don't you see that's the problem? You're not against the subsidies, except when you are. Republicans are the same way. They just want to "subsidize different". The point is, government shouldn't be making this call. As long as they are, it will be a political football. And now we're doing the same stupid thing with healthcare.Since when did farm subsidies become a bad thing?
Finally, someone asked the right question.
It's not a genuine question. Oddball is mocking you.
Well, it did open the door and that was all I needed.
But did you even get the point? Your complaints are totally valid. But they are essentially all the things that conservatives and libertarians warn about when these kinds of subsidies are proposed in the first place.
I might agree that the Libertarians have a point but the Conservatives are part of the problem as are the Liberals. Hell, even the Moderates. The problem is, no one of power has EVER seriously looked into the problem and made it public and expected to be reelected the next time around. Or to keep their appointed job for any time afterwards. Everyone talks about the Deep Cabal. Well, here was have a Brown Cabal that is out there for everyone to see. They don't even try and hide it.
This is another case of taking away programs that should go to the State and Locals and using a Federal System to administer it. I am not against the subsidies. I am against one single dime going to those that have exactly nothing to do with farming or producing food like speculators which is where the bulk of the subsidies go. Yes, do the subsidies but turn those funds over to the State or the Locals so that it can be more fairly doled out.

Oh yesThat’s the thing. You and those like you want to continue this insane government thinking it will somehow become sane. Is this not the definition of insanity?Trump isn’t the first potus to buy votes using taxpayer dollars and he won’t be the last.
The solution is terminating the federal government and everyone in it, then start anew.
No
