I guess nobody can answer that question.

Maybe the simple answer is farmers aren't important to the economy or the country.  After all you can get all the food you need at a restaurant or a grocery store.

Then too I guess farmers are really bad people because they grow that killer GMO corn and soybeans, hormone & antibiotic  filled cattle, hogs and chickens, and they spray everything with pesticides.  That's when they aren't collecting government welfare or causing hypoxia in the Gulf of Mexico.  Oh and then too they aren't working because all their work is done by illegal er, undocumented workers.

I think that's probably the reason.
