Ag cuts are a bargaining chip to get consensus on other programs-- red state can say see we cut education (gulp-see axed programs) but got some farm subsidy and visa-versa-- Saying and doing will be two different things-- WA senators are said to retain some programs that were on the cutting block the last go'round-- (more difficult now, deeper cuts-wrong party and state color) And remember Bush has not vetoed anything yet. If he starts it will be a political tradeoff of continuing GOP to his legacy. Guess we will find out. Ag subs could have cap limits placed so more could go to smaller farms and ranches, my kin needs some to survive, all the rules placed on what they grow and land use and the debt they are under in equipment and bad years.(how about those INSURANCE costs) One good year then a couple not so ones, nothing goes down but the commodities (well they use to for several long years that are still being felt) Just helped sell an uncles estate -- if it wasn't for military retirement he wouldn't of made it when we went through the books-- he did have tax deducts- lots of them.
