Mitch, you are the President, what steps do you take to prevent the spread of the virus

Their is a big farm in the Dexter area that is owned by some French outfit. They took it over when I was still working on the RR and we used their farm roads to get the track sometimes. I can't remember the name of it right now so Miller will say it just didn't happen.
You know the real response. It is better than the playbook. The optics are not as good as Obama helicoptering in for a photo OP , but the policy and response is unprecedented and effective.
Farms have to be receive money because they actually produce a vital resource and the payouts overcome the commodities corruption ....Programs for the Poor and such are nothing but handouts to the lazy and shiftless who grift off the Labors of others.
I don't like Farm subsidies but I understand why we need them and why they are important....I don't like the Trillions the government is shelling out for C-19 either the Obama Bail outs or the Bush Bail outs..... People need to Fail,suffer and learn. That is the only way to progress...but we are to soft as a society to allow that until something really Bad comes along and we can't buy our way out of it because it's to bad to overcome.....History repeating it's self as always.

You need to watch the 60 minutes story.
I know it’s difficult for you with it being posted in the thread on this topic.
People are being added to ownership partner lists of farms not because they invested in the farm, strictly because each partner listed adds $250,000 to the farms buyout. These are people who have never been to or invested in a farm in their lives. One farm listed 66 people. Many have double digits of “partners”. In the mean time, some legit small farm owners were committing suicide after getting nothing.
