Taking part of my comment out of context only dilutes your already outlandish comments.

A bountiful agricultural surplus benefits everybody, Gabz.

I never said any such thing.......I agreed with you that it is wasteful and inefficient. Your support shows your support of wasteful, inefficient government via taxpayer subsidies.

Your "idea" to produce food shortages "more efficiently" is not only pure idiocy, it is also evil.

You obviously have me mixed up with someone else.........food rotting in warehouses because of falsely inflated prices is the idiocy.

There will be no food shortages with a gradual elimination of the subsidies. In fact I see the opposite, because prices will decline and there won't be all the waste because more people will be able to afford the stuff that is currently rotting in warehouses.

Initially, prices will decline below the cost of production, forcing more farmers out of business.
Then, with fewer farmers in production, shortages will cause prices to skyrocket when we experience a season of adverse growing conditions.

It's better to have surplus food than shortages, Gabz, even if some of it winds up rotting in warehouses.

Or are you just one of those people who enjoy inflicting hunger and starvation on others?
