Of course you'll continue to vote MAGA and I'm sure you're looking forward to all those red state rural hospitals closing because #democrats. I hope you live way way way out in the boonies in Georgia so you have to drive an hour or two to make it to an emergency room. FAFO
What do you think about all this farmer socialism? Sure sounds like they're buying votes with this bailout, right?
USDA considering economic aid for farmers this fall, says secretary
WASHINGTON, Sept 15 (Reuters) - The U.S. Department of Agriculture is working with Congress to evaluate whether economic aid might be needed for the nation's farmers this autumn amid trade disputes and record-high yields, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said on Monday.
U.S. farmers have missed out on billions in soybean sales to China as stalled trade talks halt exports, and the USDA's recent forecast of a record corn crop this autumn will likely weigh on a farm economy already saddled with low prices and rising fertilizer and seed costs.
Rollins pointed to inflation, high yields and the stalled talks with China as reasons for a year of projected losses for farmers.
"We are working with our colleagues in Congress and closely monitoring markets daily to evaluate the amount of additional assistance that might be needed this fall," Rollins said at a conference of the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture in Rogers, Arkansas.
