Crop subsidies are a very touchy subject. I hate the idea of hand-outs, but unfortunately they're needed in our current economy for numerous reasons. E85 owes its existence to subsidies as do a lot of the "low" prices we pay (and have come to demand) at the grocery store.

I do agree with the farmer on the point that he is at least a contributing member of society. IMO, he deserves it more than some worthless crackhead that just pops out more babies to get a bigger check each month.
