If anyone ever wanted to stop farm subsidies they could just start calling it “Farmers Socialism” and most small, rural farmers would give it up and have their farms collapse over accepting they need the government to survive.
Nah, farmers in Europe have already connected proposals to cut farm subsidies to alt right conspiracies.
Rural resentment was a thing in 1896 and it still is.
I think the US should focus to subsidize fruits and "fresh veggies" (nor cereals nor tubers).
Or maybe subiside them but for export. I want to eat some corn from Iowa.
