If they are so concerned about the “farmers” why do we bring in all this foreign food, etc. instead of using what is grown/raised in the US?

They’re no more concerned about “farmers” than they are about “women” or “minorities”; the’re no more than an excuse for more government.

Because bananas, not grown in the US, can be sold for less than apples that are grown in the US.

At least until the next fungus kills the Cavendish bananas like it did the Gros Michael before it.
