Let me summarize. The farmers are now happy, because the prices they receive at market finally allow them to exit the farm programs, something they’ve wanted to do for decades.

You’re happy, because now the farmers are no longer in the farm programs.

With everyone happy, there’s no fuss.

Excellent, we can finally end the programs.

I'm unhappy because the ethanol mandates, milk programs and sugar quotas are still inflating the price of food.

If the ethanol mandates were removed, you and the farmers would start whining again.

Government interference makes food more expensive, not less expensive. I'm sorry you don't realize that. I'm sorry that you can't admit that.
