[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 1493808, member: 1682"] As long as there are welfare programs for farmers, the free market will never properly exist. BTO's use the programs to subsidize their overproduction which depresses the price for everyone. They can farm 160 aces and take a loss on the resulting crop if it means the extra production and size of the operation looks better on the asset balance sheet for the banker. You must realize that 90% of BTO's are one nervous bank manager away from bankruptcy. [/QUOTE]
