***The government is stopping its micro-management of wine, grain, and meat. Now farmers will be able to buy and sell as they please, not as the bureaucrats give permission. Meat prices have already dropped. ***

Reminds me of just the opposite in the 1930s when FDR had millions of head of cattle and hogs bought up, shot and buried to get the price UP! They also had farmers fill out forms for regular crops to make sure there was not too much on the market.
Meanwhile starving people back then were still starving because of no jobs to even buy food which was very cheap.

Yep, it was a very bad deal for struggling farmers who had to kill baby pigs.
