I do think it will be a better thing in the long run if we allow the subsidies to expire, because then we can have a more productive debate about which subsidies really need to stay and which ones are better left expired.

Like most political institutions, farm subsidies had their noble origin.


glad we can see eye to eye.

we should start with planned parenthood and pbs/nbr

I meant ag subsidies specifically.

Planned Parenthood is a teriffic investment, and it's a shame that they can't get abortion funding. Reproductive advancement is one of the quickest ways to advance a society.


yeah feeding people is a horrible investment, killing is much better. less mouths to feed means less food needed!

Possibly my fault as i didn't specify, but i meant that we should let certain agriculture subsidies stay gone, while others come back. Farmers obviously deserve support, but to what degree, and for what specifically, is another question entirely. Hitting off cotton subsidies would really help West Africa, and corn subsidies would improve the health of our food drastically.
