[Willie Green]

These are no markets but travesties of markets.

Amen. True markets naturally evolve to provide tangible goods and service demanded by individual consumers.
So-called "market driven environmentalism" relies on the creation of an artificial commodity that no individual consumer actually wants or needs to purchase. It's just another phoney and complex financial shell game dreamed up by lawyers, beancounters and bureaucrats to skim some money off the cash flow.

I have always believed that we as a nation have farm subsidies so that we insure the nation will always have food to eat. This seems to me to be a good thing.
