As Ye Sow
Am I the only one who finds massive government interference in agricultural markets to be insanity? And, surely our own nation's recent love affair with ethanol is a significant contribution to world wide inflationary food costs - and starvation.
I would say we should vote for politicians that will end government sticking its snout into agriculture markets. But - would we have anyone left for whom to vote?
Sadly, the answer is unclear.
I couldn't agree with you more.

Anyone care to see how all of this got out of hand, you can read the Washington Post story on this, or watch Bill Moyers story on this issue which he covered last week.
