Cambridge, southwestern Nebraska | I agree 1,000%. Most of the government payments keep rural America going.
Had there never been government subsidies including crop insurance everything would be adjusted accordingly. I really think we would have more farmers. Crop insurance allowed farms to expand further than they probably could have had they not been able to pass off some of the risk.
Land values would be lower. Rents lower. We wouldn’t have the problem we have now with government payments basically being paid to farmers to support the fertilizer, chemical, and equipment industry. |
