Not just corn...Look at beef!
USA, by closing the border to Canadian cattle disrupted a whole industry; in the USA no competition forced the price up, in Canada down. Down to 5c a pound on a cow. By having to pay the transportation and commission the farmer would have been better off to shoot that cow and feed the coyoties with it.
Just wait what a chain action on the flow of money this will cause in the next 6-12 months and a lot less visitors to Arizona next winter.

Why so cocksure about the conclusion of the inflation/deflation argument, Russ? Japan has done all the things that Greenspan and Company have done the past 14 years and prices are still declining there. Moreover, their central bank has been far more active in the logical intervention scale than the Fed -- monetizing bonds at the long end and even monetizing stocks.
