Part of me agrees with you. But part of me asks, "What America are you living in?".

We've had price supports on Dairy products since I was a kid. The government has pushed grains and cereal on us in their "pyramid" since I was a kid. The truth is finally coming out that the policies have been stupid.

I'm just saying if we are going to do anything, let's do something that makes sense. You may be right that doing nothing is better than what we are doing now.

And as far as spending the money on what they said they will. We just got to start electing people of character, because we have to have some minimal levels of government and the temptation to divert the funds will always be there.

Oh, I know about the dairy subsidies for the Northeastern dairy farmers, and the government-sponsored pyramid.

All I'm saying is, let's tear down this wall! Let's not lay more bricks over a rickety foundation.
