        Republicans are putting farmers on government assistance due to tariffs. Farmers will get first check 1 wk before midterms vote. So Republicans are buying farmers votes. Will farmers get check in 2019 or they have to sell their farms. Vote Democrats for changes midterm!

        US Soybean farmers have lost 20% - 25% of the value of their crops since March, when Trump announced $60 billion in tariffs on Chinese imports. China, which buys the bulk of US soybeans, responded with a 25% tariff. China has now stopped buying US soybeans.https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/trump-tariffs-farmers-soybeans_us_5b646da2e4b0de86f4a0c5f4?guccounter=1 …

        Are you also recognizing the multitudes of migrant laborers needed to harvest all those crops? Laborers that work long hours for little pay. Crops that are now rotting due to lack of workers because of current immigration policies.

        KokoSmiles....you are foolish and misinformed! Farmers can't control what price they get for their products and the prices can & do change radically. Talk to a farmer and LEARN before you tweet this sort of nonsense!

But, without hesitation his administration will cut food benefits for seniors. Doesn't make sense.

        What most people don’t understand is the subsidies never even get us to a break even point and sure don’t restore a profit margin.

        These days it seems everybody is just trying to survive. Thanks for sharing the info, helps me to understand what farmers are going through. (Although I'll probably continue shooting arrows at this administration, just letting you know😊)

        No problem...I appreciate your respectful response! I love educating about USA Ag because most people really don't know how it works.

        Appreciate that, but the rural folks I know are all the first ones to support Republicans cutting welfare for *other* families whose government support doesn’t help them break even. And rural Texas is all about trying to make them piss in a cup for their benefits.

        Good thing that they have direct deposit or they might hurt themselves carrying those government bailout checks to the bank.
