As the tweet from which I got Washington Post: New farm bill offers up some old failings observed: "...If there's anything farm lobby dislikes more than losing subsidies it's the public following the money".
And if the tea party started by attacking this sort of corporate welfare rather than upkeep on the local roads, I'd be more sympathetic.
