Congress Quietly At Work On New Farm Subsidies
 
This is part of the Trojan Horse of illegal immigration, migrant workers, and open borders. Farm subsidies are what have been fueling the agribusinesses, food stamps, housing and healthcare programs for illegals and legal workforce that no other businesses come close to enjoying. Farm subsidies are what have been at the root of killing real farming in south and latin America and driving the migration to the US. Now these corrupt congress people want to insure that their agribusiness contributors make money regardless of any calamity, even if it is a planned one.

We should quit supporting farm labor that is not involved in producing fiber or carbohydrates or anything else that is not used to glamorize grocery store produce counters.

We should reject the notion that there is any kind of imperative for migrant labor in order to produce table grapes or lettuce.

Some these farmers getting this corporate welfare are not really farmers, they are multinational agribusinesses masquerading as small farmers.
