great danes

All of these people have to be Recalled by Americans ...Say NO to all of the Crazy Spending...our Dollar is falling because of all this Sh-t!!!
ENOUGH OF IT ALL!!!!

Carrick

"Greatdanes" I see you comments everywhere, and they're always alarmist and completely uninformed. This is the Farm Bill you dolt. It definitely is a welfare pile, thats nothing new, and this particular version is such a pathetic hand out to big agribusiness and wealthy "Cowboy Kit" no-grow "farmers" but its also the subsidies that beat out local grain in foreign markets which keeps our American farms in existence ... At least explain it like I just did. If you haven't educated yourself enough on it, don't waste our time.

Carrick (again)

P.S. - The bill that went through both houses arrived and was signed by the President WITHOUT an entire chapter. This very rare mistake means it is going back for a quick re-vote in the houses.

Call your Congresspeople and DEMAND that they remove the automatic payments to farmers earning more than $200k per year. As it stands, the cap is at $750k!!!!!! The commodities lobby kept it high b/c they will fight ANY decrease in in subsidies. They are one of the two most mobilized, powerful and effective lobbies in Washington. Its outragous! CALL YOUR CONGRESSPERSON.
