From his own pocket right? Because his stupid decisions put them in that situation. I would like to see what percentage of money goes to small farms and what money goes to huge corporate farms.
boosting the farm safety net
Oh nice that they get one but no one fucking else does.
Well, without them we all die of starvation, so, yeah they should have a safety net. Unless you and everyone you know wants to become a farmer, mass production farms are how we feed billions of people.
Of course, but from what I’m understanding these subsidies are going to the farmers who’s soybeans weren’t bought by China because of Trump’s tariffs so they weren’t domestic food to begin with. Now they will probably rot somewhere instead. Starvation never entered the picture, this is all about money. I’d love to own a farm, sure.
Starvation never entered the picture because there is a safety net and has been one since the dust bowl. Farmgate value for most products is terrible which is why they get so many subsidies and tax breaks.
It’s a shame their products aren’t valued more, since they are the raw materials for so much including life. I still don’t support bailing out farmers who voted for this. I guess I would rather bail out farmers than bankers or oil barons or ranchers, as if I have a choice. Anyways, we can’t be sure this money is even going to the right people with this admin.
