3. farmers have been getting subsidies since 1933

they are no different then anyone else... (they believe) they deserve it because they work so hard

6. Tarrif relief vs food stamps

The Agra bill and Food stamps have always went together for passing in Congress.
But they cut Food Stamp program to increase funds for The wealthy.
and They Screwed the markets for Farmers To make them look Tough on Tariffs.
How much Government money Will they Burn to make the Repugs look like they care??
They gonna Fix it For Farmers but not For Food Stamps. Hell I think they
Killed Meals on Wheels for the Elderly.
They Don't give a shit about the Poor and the helpless Americans
but man, anyone with equity.
They would Betray and bankrupt the nation for...

7. I am not one to tell democratic leaders what to do like some do.

But getting food assistance more funds should be the minimum price for voting to send farmers $12 billion. Democrats should pillor republicans on the concept of a free market.

10. Agreed

11. From our standpoint, nothing to lose.

It isn't like farmers are on the fence ready to vote for our candidates if our leaders help them. The farmers that vote for our candidates already are unlikely to stop doing that if our Congressional leaders play hardass with this bailout.
