We California row crop vegetable grower who get no federal price supports, crop insurance etc say maybe it’s time to get off the government teat.
Trump got rid of death tax so farmers don’t have to sell the family farm to pay the IRS. So now they can leave the farms to kinfolk.
Trump eliminated many expensive EPA regs saving farms money.
And lowered the taxes for almost everyone.
What the heck are these guys complaining about? Don’t they want America to stop losing 800 billion a year in trade deficits?
Give Trump time to Win on Trade like he is with the EU.
He has only been in DC for 1.5 years, give him some time and your support.
Subsidies pick winners and losers. We had a machining business for 35 years. The only benefit we got was depreciation on huge cost of CNC machines. All businesses get that...including farmers. If there were no subsidies would farmers make market based decisions on what they grew and when?
It was not a level playing field with other industries. As with tariffs...get the subsidies down to 0 and let the true free market work.
