Well then you ain't as dumb as they say. Truly, if folks had to pay the true cost for goods, they likely would not be as danged fat as they are. They would live longer, healthier, eating only enough to survive and thrive, treating food as fuel instead of danged entertainment. I like treats, but DANG! You only need just a few blueberries. Not a whole danged quart. You don't need to eat a pint of ice-cream at a sitting. Just a few dang teaspoons will do her just fine. We are nothing but a buncha dang gluttons. It would do many of us well to purposefully try to scratch out a living. I don't need your danged inferior medicated beef and your danged irradiated, hybridized fruits and your danged waxy pink disgusting excuses for tomatos. Thanks, but no thanks.

How much do you care about JP's situation? Life is tough and everyone has their problems. Judging by your post before the one I am responding to it sounds like you have a pretty good life that suits you well. Many would want to be in your situation. If the American farming industry cannot provide food for Americans at reasonable cost i would be surprised. You make it sound like we could not eat unless the government props up farming. Hard for me to believe. Especially with all the stories we see about paying farmers to grow stuff that is not needed.
