Re: If you were a farmer and could get a subsidy (which in fact you didn't need)

Huh?! I beg your pardon --from my post #9668:

Today, direct CAP subsidies make up, on average, 90% of a farmer's pre-tax income. That suggests that the average farmer would barely scrape a living without such aid.

ALL farmers are on the dole, not just HSH Prince Albert of Monaco and his fellow gentlemen farmers....
