Farm Bill Puts Econonsense, Insurance Industry, Food Faddism Before Food
The Senate voted up 64-35, on June 21, a miserable draft five-year bill, "Agriculture Reform, Food and Jobs Act of 2012" (S.3240). It goes in July to the House of Representatives, preparatory to having a new law in place when the current five-year farm law, passed in 2008, expires Sept. 30.
