Re: Farms

I support the farmers at Klamath Lake, but Buck points to a valid issue. This problem is but the most recent in a long history of massive government involvement with the agricultural system in this country.

Buck does not have a point, while it is true that the subsidies are atrocious, that is NOT what this arugment or what the battle is about. The way to deal with the problem of government subsidies is not to change our value system and put the welfare of animals above people, but to simply deal with the subsidy issue itself by not taking money from some and doling it out as corporate welfare to others. For Buck to use this argument is ass backwards.
