You know, farmers don't write the tax bill. They just take advantage of it when they can and get hurt when it gets changed, or somebody like a farmer president decides to put a wheat embargo on to try to hurt someone else.
I assume you don't take all the tax deductions available to you in whatever your business is. If you resell, pay sales tax on your goods purchased for resale instead of making the poor taxpayer foot the bill.
However misguided the farm programs are, we are still eating cheaply in this country, even when you add the cost to each citizen. If we have a $90 billion annual farm bill, and 80% of it is food stamps and non farmer related expenditures, the $18 billion "aid" to farmers works out to $55.73 per person, or $0.15 per day. It's a killer. Small price for food security. If you add in food stamps, college support, etc, that jumps to $279 per person, $0.76 per day.
If you want to make a political statement about how you disapprove of the actions of Congress that needs to be on a political forum. And stop buying reduced priced food in excess of your $0.15 contribution.
