The latest piece of bad news came on March 11, when the Trump administration released its 2020 budget and proposed a 15 percent cut for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, calling its subsidies to farmers “overly generous.”

"The flood has already swallowed his childhood home, many of his fields and more than 20,000 bushels of corn. His four grain bins have burst, after water-logged corn expanded and split open.

For years, Oswald paid extra for flood insurance. He hoped that government talk of investing in improving U.S. infrastructure would come through - and bolster the levees and dams throughout the Midwest.

But this year, as the trade war dragged on, he dropped the policy to reduce expenses. So he will get no insurance money for the lost corn, Oswald said."

So point out that's pretty much identical in language to the Mueller report conclusion. Doesn't exonerate him.

LOL the dumbfuck Republicans can't even line the pockets of their corporate masters correctly. Their written-on-a-napkin-at-3am tax plan hosed up the numbers, and some F500 companies are getting dinged.

WSJ posted:

P&G pays about 18% to 19% of its non-U.S. income in foreign taxes. That is high enough that executives thought they would avoid paying a new U.S. minimum tax designed to prevent companies from shifting profits to low-tax countries. Instead, P&G now expects to pay the U.S. $100 million annually because of that minimum tax, raising its tax rate on foreign profits to 21%.

….“It’s kind of dawning on everybody at about the same time that this is going to be an issue,” Jon Moeller, P&G’s chief financial officer, said in an interview. “On the margin, it disincents local job creation.”

regardless of if the USDA can unilaterally cut SNAP (my inclination is not) it's the same result, SNAP subsidizes farmers a fewer levels deep.

when i lived in harlem the trick local places used to getting around snap requirements is that they would sell the ingredients on food stamps and then the cooking of them was free. fish markets were the best, you really could buy lobster on food stamps and have them steam it right there

oh i just looked it up and it's a state-by-state thing where they'll have restaurant-exemption programs for snap

i should've guessed since one of the other requirements is that you can't buy anything intended to be eaten in the store

Wasting the money rather than spending on stuff that benefits people is the point. The money is peanuts, the point is you don't get to have nice things and you will never have nice things because they will burn it all down out of spite rather than let you have nice things.

They'd rather set piles of money on fire before doing anything that benefits most people, because they loving hate you.
