[Mike Darancette]

First, at a time of record budget deficits, we are borrowing money to subsidize agribusinesses that are not poor.

Let's make our Agribusiness poor so we can borrow money to buy food?

Hanson knows what he is talking about when it comes to agriculture. He was raised on a farm in central California.

You may know of it, but his book, "Fields Without Dreams" is an excellent treatment of farm subsidies, farm co ops and growing up barely making it on a true family farm.
