Farming on Our Own by Deanna Dyksterhuis, Bonus 1995

This is an old article, but principles do not change. The farm subsidy scam has been going on for a very long time. Only those who have something to gain from it would continue to support this parasite's paradise scheme.

Ignore my comments and read the article. If you still disagree, show how these good people were wrong.

If you want to elimate subsidies, then you have to go whole-f'n-hog and institute a market system, where farmers have a say in how their crops are sold. Right now, they're captives to a rigged system. Doing away with subsidies without finishing the "marketization" of agriculture would be tantamount to the Zimbabweization of America.

Did you know that there are tons of fruit and berry farmers who are obligated to destroy every n'th row of their crops? They are even prohibited from feeding their own families with it, feeding it to animals, or even donating it to the starving.

The system is rigged top to bottom, and your "cure" is to yank the IV tube out of the barely-clinging-to-life farmer.

Go ahead, see what you'll get. You'll make a very nice pawn for the globalists who are waiting semi-patiently for the USA to be completely incapable of feeding itself. Enjoy your mayheekan asparagus, sold retail for less than it costs an American farmer to produce. Enjoy your chinese canned goods, and so forth.

When the USA is no longer able to feed itself, I'm sure you'll have ample opportunity to determine just how friendly our foreign "friends" really are.
