Subject: wife asked me a question about bears



East central Iowa

She said why would anybody who farms and is on a farm site be happy with low prices?  Especially knowing it will break some and force some older people off their land.

She doesn't understand the apparent glee that accompanies some posts about lower priced corn and beans.  Frankly neither do I.

Having sold corn for $.93 when gas was as low as $.10 because of "gas wars" and having bought pop for 5¢ when it was the little Cokes I kind of think corn has every right to have kept up with the rest of society.  When my sale of 93¢ corn was made the girls working at the A&W made 65¢ and hour, today at similar places they make $7.50, I rather believe they can afford corn at $6 or $7.
