“Anything in it for real farmers?”
The Amish? No, they don’t take farm welfare.
Probably not.
But if you are a large corporation, then yes.
[ And WalMart. They love selling subsidized ag to SNAP card shoppers. ]
NAILED IT!!!
ADM and Con-agra love to make TV dinners for Wal-mart to sell too, all heavily subsidized...
So how much here for Muzzies, illegals, homosexual marriages, and dimocrats for their pockets.
Be ever vigilant.
No Congress can bind another Congress to this spending.
They will end subsidies yet still tell the farmers how much they can charge for their products. The big boys ain’t gonna’ like this.
I went to high school with farmers’ children who are now wealthy. I also went to school with some who had to sell the family farm and move away. I knew a family with 5 children who lived very well farming 400 acres. That was without subsidies. In fact, I thought they were rich. None of the kids farm anymore. They’ve either sold the land or rented it out and found regular jobs.
Billions more for Food Stamps in this bill. Billions. Almost 80% of the total

What the hell does farm subsidies have to do with this bill? I want them gone but they are but a small percentage of this bill. please tell me that you do know what the farm bill is all about. Please.
Roger that. I farm and have never taken subsidies. I stay out of the governments life and they can stay out of mine. Some things just ain’t for sale.
Looking at the USSR farm poster ... “One million tractors!”
Yeah, and none of them run.

Ooops! Missed your post, before I posted the same graphic.
Bears repeating ;-)
End farm subsidies for multi billion dollar companies. The small guy gets short shrift in all of these sweetheart deals
Ps. Not a farmer. Not even close.
I think the poster was just promising one million tractors as part of the five-year plan. Unfortunately for the Russians, I don't think they got that millionth tractor. The factory in the background had to be converted to making T-34s instead, of which they did make a million. At least it seemed that way to the Germans.
One of the many reasons the USSR failed was that the factory never got converted back to making tractors. It just kept making tanks even though the war was long over.
