[QUOTE="Dave645, post: 6372346, member: 55822"] The problems don’t get fixed by sub, I can nearly guarantee that consumers are paying the exactly the same price for beef, while the farmer is taking a hit. So increasing subs, takes the guilt out of the middle men’s greed. But benefits the consumer not one jot. In fact they pay twice. This is why it’s not money the farmers need long term but, a better relationship with the consumer and the supply chain. No one regulates the supply chain. Not over price. While the short term fix may be needed with increasing payments it doesn’t fix the underlying issues, over supply, imports, greed, etc. The problem is these types of problems are nearly impossable to tackle. So sub payments step in. More as a band aid that a solution. In fact they can give the middle men more confidence knowing that the state will bail farmers out so why worry about paying a fair price?
