2. Holy Crap,

most of those effected got a pittance. And those so called Corn and Bean buys are at best going to happen maybe middle of next year. Maybe.

Said this before,the Farm Economy is at the tipping point. China has already purchased Corn and Beans form other sources for this calendar year. Usually a six week to three month lead time is required to even secure a bulk carrier and schedule port time. And the order delivery of Hopper Cars to a given Elevator can take two to three weeks.

Somebody is truly blowing smoke up something .

Hey America, he despises you. That's why he wants this country to be his own property as a full monarch who acts like a tin pot dictator. Then, you are beholden to him and he represents it all, so you have no choice. Supporting him is selling yourselves out.

4. Seriously, right before the election ramps up?

I don't mean to make light of the farmers' situation; I feel for them. This may be what it takes to get them to vote in their own economic interests this time around.
