If we have an excess crop of grain, why do we subsidize it?

Sounds like over-production to me...

I provide the fuel to run your tractor, the plastic that your happy rear sits on when you ride that tractor, and the chemicals that you treat your crops with to keep them alive.

I don't care. I really don't.
