White House explores new farmer bailout plan

[Centrista]

Trump should have told us that the goal of this trade War thing was to give free money to people.
This is like the border wall thing. Trump claims that a country (Mexico) would pay for it, but at the end he used American funds for it.
Now China was supposed to foot the bill in this case, but guess ends up bailing out the farmers?
Americans.

Conservatives can never pretend to care about spending ever again

Trump has decided to cover behind collective social funds..

Yep, fuck farmers. We have far too many anyways.

 

[Dekster]

We should do away with subsidies/price supports and just create a refundable version of the earned income tax credit so at risk farmers benefit and agribusiness can go screw themselves.

 

[Indeependent]

Yeah...give it all to Ilegals...

Don't folks just love this shit?

(1) the majority of rural farmers voted for Trump
(2) Trump turns around & fucks the farmers that voted for him
(3) Trump offers the farmers subsidies AKA welfare
(4) the GOP claims they hate 'assistance programs'

You can't make this shit up .................

Anytime you want to watch the price of food soar to where it should be you're free to not subsidize the large farmers who say they can do it so much more efficiently and watch the number of small farmers increase because they can then afford to raise a family on a small farm.

*****SMILE*****

Having to bail out farmers shows we are already losing

Well, the right has always been for subsidization for farmers. This wouldn't be any different than the usual. However, I totally agree. Trump's budgets are complete fucking bullshit.

Are we keeping people with sexual diseases alive? What is winning or losing?

 

[DustyInfinity]

Screw the farmers right? Who needs food. Reminds me of the thread about the socialist diet. Leftys sure do worry about farmers quite a bit, considering they hate them so much.

I think you are getting the wrong information

The number is 17%, not 1.2%. Don't make stats up.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

Fuck farmer welfare.

[Rambunctious]

You are including all goods...I am strictly referring to crops...and by the way even with the short term pain the farmers are in favor of what trump is trying to do...if they can get on board what is wrong with you and the dems?...TDS again?....huh snowflake?...
New markets will appear for soybeans and other crops....China is not the only market...

 

[Camp]

As long as we can keep borrowing money from the Chinese to pay our farmers for their losses in the Chinese tariff war everything will work out just fine.

You really believed Mexico was going to pay for the wall? Really? You thought China would foot the bill for baling out farmers? Seriously?

I don't know anyone as dumb as you .
