This Congress can't get ANYTHING done.

The tillers of the soil are crying again, soy bean prices are falling, corn is down oh my what do we do? SUFFER. If you cant make a living wage, quit! Brazil and argentina will feed us.We already subsidize some south american farmers, just add a few more, its only money. tax payer money. When milk hits 4 bucks a gallon, I quit using it, and butter and cheese. 20 years ago they were dumping milk, because there was little or no profit. Well they got the price up, and its still not enough?

but you cant eat steel

With the genetic engineering and food additives, soon you wont be able to eat food

but you cant eat steel

No steel = No John Deere. Economy, take another hit, here comes Kuboda.

I don't think all farmers are Amish and tend to 1000's of acreas of wheat or corn or barley with a horse drawn plow. But, I might be wrong, I haven't been to that end of KY for awhile.

[HURRICANEBOB]

No really, trust me....it's all better now.

Congress came back from vacation. Well rested, with peace in their minds, I'm sure they will do a more energetic and well voice job of doing nothing! But at least they will be more relaxed when they do it.

I see a connection to gun control mania and non-productive congressman. Connect the dots........aaaaaah haaaaaa!

[Moveon]

I don't drink that much milk so I can do without it if the price doubles. Besides our taxes are going to go up if congress can't figure out a way to tax just the rich a little more so that the rest of us can keep the tax breaks.

And don't dare mess with my social security before I can retire.

So the price goes up,some folks cut back or quit, demand goes down, GREAT. But now you need fewer cows, so your feed prices drop,and then the grain growing farmer says[see where this is going]. And you guys complain about organized labor??
