6. Bill Moyers had a program on the farm bill this month, too. I had no idea!

Edited on Sat Apr-26-08 05:15 PM by MissMarple

It is crazy how screwed up it is and there is no political will to change it. Even the Democrats are apparently unwilling to make changes that may effect influential land owners, and Bush won't increase the food stamp program. It is insane and mind boggling. It is supposed to be undergoing changes this month, but I'm not holding my breath. The family farms it is supposed to help don't see much benefit. And the hungry in this country are growing in number by the day and the food banks are stressed. That I knew about. :nuke:
