Watched the "Farm Bill Forum" with Johanns, Grassley and Harkins in attendance from Iowa. They took several questions/advice from the audience pertaining to the content of the bill. It was on C-Span.
The big topics were "Agribusiness". And the control of Cargill, Tyson, and Smithfield has on the farm producer.
One comment was.........why should we keep working to guarantee profits for Cargill, Tyson, and Smithfield? [paraphrasing] while they continue to reap corporate welfare from the government?
These large corps have very bad public relations. Why?
