Actually, I'm talking about all these giant AG Conglomerates that get BILLIONS to "artificially" keep food prices low. The Chinese don't have ANYTHING on us when it comes to "central planning" for agriculture. If they can't get a certain price for their product then the U.S. will just "buy it" and "store it". If the U.S. thinks there is going to be too much corn or soybeans this year then we will PAY folks not to plant ANYTHING. There's welfare EVERYWHERE and I don't seem to be getting ANY of it..LOL One of my personal "pet peeves" is this whole "Disability" thing. How many 10's of MILLIONS of people in this Country are collecting "Disability"? I see lawyers advertising that they can GET you on disability if the government has given you a hard time about it. How DISABLED should you have to be before the government just sends you a check every month???
