If you hate Trump I don't care what other political views you hold. You are my people.
By % of farms and % of farm land held by sml fam farm it looks like you may be right. Production of those farms only equals 17-23% of annual production even though 86% of farms are said to be small family farms. Supposedly these make less than $350,000 in revenue, which I don't believe is possible.
Not exactly. When cropland sells for $15,000-20,000 an acre, it doesn’t take a huge farm to be worth millions of dollars. Many of the farms are family owned but held as corporations or trusts.

If only there was a program by which excess domestic food production could be bought by the government and re-distributed to those in need both locally and globally.

But no, instead we're talking about literally paying farmers to let the crops rot.

2.2 trillion in new debt just during 2025
Just a reminder that, as shitty as this economy is, it is being financed by record deficits.

The country should be enjoying the good times right now because all these bailouts are going to be paid for by us for years.

I don't mind paying for beneficial government programs. This is not that.

“At a Mississippi Farm Bureau Federation meeting, attendees proposed the idea of a government-backed program where farmers would get compensated for simply getting rid of their surplus rice.”

So again the American taxpayer has to bail these farmers out because they voted for and supported Trump? NO

Corn is used in sweeteners. Most ppl eat high fructose corn syrup constantly.
Maybe time for American Farmers to Grow something
that Americans want to eat instead of Soybeans for China
or Corn for alcohol used in gasoline ?

Almost all farms in US are corporations. "Little" farms were heavily consolidated back in the 80s
2.2 million pounds? That's not a farmer, that is a corporation

If Americans were really serious about fighting back against corporate America, they would boycott the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, a good number of people in this country aren’t willing to make that small sacrifice and it’s sad and infuriating.

We aren’t talking about the fact that U.S. forces kidnapped two people from Scotland, defying a Scottish court’s order to keep them there.

If I were Scotland, I would close all U.S. military operations there.

Who the fuck do we think we are? We’re now a bunch of law defying thugs.

In the US we saw the deep So. demand Succession back in 1860. Considering how much damage many in our So. have done over the yrs I might ask do Canadians really want to keep Alberta. Sometimes it might be better for the right wing crazies to have a place to go and let the world see how they turn out
