"In my opinion the two most egregious, sinful miscarriages of justice that are codified into our domestic policy are the subsidies payed to corn farmers and the for-profit prison system" From this post: http://hubski.com/pub?id=30626
What do you think OWS, should "farmers" (use that term lightly here) be given subsidies?
I thought the corn subsidies were ended.
No, unfortunately not.
I'll look that up see what they were talking about, thanks

Sorry about that, and thanks for the "facts" --appreciated.
thought I had heard that, OK so that's one, just 999 more things that need fixin', right?
