Everyone gets a new car!

Today's link is from the more-local KFGO, which I found while searching for news about Brazil. The main take-away from the story is that we're subsidizing Brazilian cotton farmers so we can subsidize American cotton farmers. If ever you wanted some pork to trim, this might be it. However, the government claims it's between a rock and a hard place since having farms at all is considered critical infrastructure. This could be a good point to debate, given that rising oil prices make foreign primary goods ever more costly to ship in. It could be damaging to our economy, but is this argument convincing? More people need to engage in subjects such as this. Use the tips in the eBook and make them feel like idiots and sheepishly get back in line when they aren't engaged:

• Commentary on Father's Day: The biggest gift we give today is the millions of dollars in subsidies we pay to Brazilian Farmer Dads so we can pay millions of dollars in subsidies to our American Farmer Dads.
• Wildfires "Are The Immigrants' Fault": You'd think their pyromania would be sated when they burn all the farm subsidy money we keep sending south of the border just to keep our own farm subsidies legal.
• Hustler Job Offer To Weiner: Playboy should take a page from our government's book and pay Hustler to hire Weiner. It's a win-win, like how we subsidize Brazilian cotton farmers in order to subsidize American cotton farmers.
• Romney Claims He's Unemployed: If he wants a paycheck he should become a Brazilian cotton farmer. We give about a hundred million a year to them just so they'll let us throw money at American cotton farmers without complaining. Easy living!
• Golf Summit: I wonder if it's like the cotton farming industry where they have to pay green fees to Brazilian golf courses before they can pay the green fees at the American golf course.
