Why doesn’t the GOP leadership put together and pass a simple bill eliminating the Raisin Administrative Committee? Let the Democrats try to defend this stupid bureaucracy or Obama veto its repeal.

Farmers in the U.S. have been government -controlled since FDR.My mother remembers the men coming out to their tenant farm and shooting the hogs which were then buried-thus reducing the pork supply and driving up prices;meanwhile millions were hungry!FDR was an evil bastard dictator in so many ways;and like today the media covered up or ignored all the bad things about his personal and professional life.The farmer who isn’t tied up in some USDA program is rare.Remember the 1930 Supreme Court ruling on wheat growing ? The Supreme Court seldom rules against expansion of government power.

Ever notice how all the “great” presidents ignore the constitutional limits on their powers but are then acclaimed by the elite ?

Because the GOP-e are just as interested in using these expansions of government power as Democrats and they don't want to lose that power!
