One does not have to but drive through farm country to see your tax dollars used as farm welfare. My mother-in-law (who owns and rents out her farm) has a favorite story ....about the farmer who returns his Lexus to the dealer, because his government given free cheese wouldn't fit in the glove compartment.

The ethanol boondoggle in the Midwest is causing government subsidized corn to be grown fence row to fence row to be hauled to government supported ethanol plants to be turned into tax subsidized gasohol and E-85 neither of which represent any real solution to our energy problem. Our tax dollars at work.

After a goodnight of sleep, I recieved 12 emails saying talking to you people about farming is like talking to a STUMP.

I was supported and told that I was exactly right in 12 emails.
