I don't think the issue is the farm subsidies (although the last farm bill was 190 BILLION which makes you wonder how that industry is sustainable)- it has more to do with technology feeling shunted in this huge pork fest.

I think they are stating clearly to congress that politicos shouldn't expect favors in 04. Thats my read on it anyway.

<although less than the approximately $30 billion the federal government currently spends on agriculture subsidies, which he criticized as an investment ``in the industries of the 19th century.>

Yeah, who needs food anyway

Is it your contention that goods and services will not get supplied if there is not a large federal government subsidy for those goods or services?
