The no inflation LIE can only go so far until everyone's broke paying for food and fuel.No kidding. The cost of groceries is out of control.

We need to kill the ethanol subsidies and get farmers back to growing corn for food.

We have a surplus of corn. The price has plummeted. The is not enough storage space. The rail cars are hard to come by. Our local power plant had to pull strings, beg and jump through hoops to get rail cars for coal for the winter. Corn will be sitting in mountainous piles everywhere after harvest. we will be drowning in corn.

This is feed corn. There is too much corn for a reduced beef herd. Pig and chicken diseases have lowered the stocks of those animals. Humans do not directly eat this corn.
