Tax payer dollars shouldn’t be used to subsidize foreign agriculture/food industries.

There is a reason food stamps are in the Department of Agriculture.

Zackly!
The FS program was launched to;
1. assist those needing it.
2. promote US agricultural products.

Limiting the program to US products could possibly
encourage young people to get into farming as a business, IMHO.
I know there are a lot of young people coming along these days
interested in back to the basics (read: farming, etc) for a living.
