There are many issues to comment on here, but I am wondering what Lynn is - why can't our country support our farmers without subsidies? Why is it so dysfunctional? How can we fix it? I live in the middle of farmland - dairy farmers, ranchers, wonderful productive crops of all kinds within a mile of my house, but I know the farmers are struggling right in my backyard. But yet we all need to eat. There is a disconnect somewhere there.

Processed food - I am becoming more and mjore convinced that it is a bad thing - for my own physique,that of my family, and our country. Chips are a treat - not something you have everyday!
