I guess the lawyers who fought the bill were idiots huh?

Sorry but it doesn't work that way anymore. If you don't have the exact formulation you'll either burn or you won't produce. It's very very exact. You can't. Not without ditching todays' bio engineered crops. That means an instant 50% in yields gone and another 50% of land taken out of...

http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&docid=f:h875ih.txt.pdf Comrade Cannuck, Pay special attention to * Section 3 which is the definitions portion of the bill-read in it’s entirety. * section 103, 206 and 207- read in its entirety. What it Does: *...

We aleady get enough **** from PQ in return and have to fund their sorry asses. How do you process hog waste into a fertilizer that is properly formulated for today's bio enginered crops cheaper and with less energy than mined salts? What makes pigs salts better than mined salts when it comes to...

Comrades! Before you can move a vegetable across state lines you have to grow (manufacture) it. Trade of goods doesn't have to be a sale of goods to be trade. Giving an unlabeled, uninspected, home manufactured food item as gift is still trade. If grandma gives you a jar of home preserved...

By The Canadian Press OTTAWA - An independent analysis says Canadian governments are subsidizing the oil patch to the tune of about $2.8 billion a year, despite a G20 agreement to pare back such support. The Winnipeg-based International Institute for Sustainable Development has been adding...

How do you "manufacture" a vegetable? A factory or a just a simple plot of soil? Were does the bill outline "commercial operations only"? You are welcome to read the entire bill and gain a broader understanding. Until then growing a veggie and giving it to your neighbour even if he or she is...

Nope. Where does it say commerce? You don't have to exchnage money to trade goods. Giving a potato away is still trade. What's a chemtrail?

Where do I argue in favour of a global socialist system? I will go straight back to square one and say a lot of people are going to have to die in the very near future. I hope it's not you. You still have a lot to learn about the green bull**** you promote. I want you to live a long life...

It's the history of consumerism in a sustainabilty thread. It's on track.

Without the subsidies since the 50's we'd still be spending 60% of our income on food and the consumer glutony and waste that is allegedly killing the planet would have never existed. At some point all those debts will be called in. Another big bank bailout is just around the corner...

Food subsidies began shortly after WWII long before there was easy credit. The Feds are putting the subsidies on VISA? Scroll back I already posted it. Promote it? It pisses me off.

Good question because the true fix is to let the developing world develope but that goes against everything pitched by the "sustainable growth" green crowd. Or we can have "social leveling" like in the good ol' days of Lennin and Trotsky. Have you heard anyone pitch that yet with agro...

What good is defecit spending if a big chunk is to subsidize food? How can you borrow to eat and keep things at status quo?

In America backyard gardens are illegal unless you have a brand name. SEC. 401. PROHIBITED ACTS. It is prohibited-- (1) to manufacture, introduce, deliver for introduction, or receive in interstate commerce any food that is adulterated, misbranded, or otherwise unsafe; How many aren't? How...

Are you going to be able to afford the same level of consumption with grain prices doubling this year?

$20Billion in global subsidies...that's about $3 a head. Far below a sustaining industry. [/LEFT] I'd like to meet one of the few that actually turn an independant dollar and shake his hand.

Apparently the entire globe is to have state funded commercial agro by 2015.... that will mean a totally state reliant commercial ag system. That makes all farmers less than subsistence.

It's all there. If you look you'll find it. Without tax breaks or subsidies industrial farms wouldn't exist and not a single farmer would make enough to feed himself. They aren't even substaining themselves and that is why the number is high. Food production subsidies/ tax incentices are...
