Farmers Take Heat, but Big Agriculture Reaps Farm Bill Benefits
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/060607P.shtml

Tallying up the farm bill, which Congress will likely vote on this fall,
yields
losers and winners. The losers: farmers, farm laborers, food processing
workers,
rural communities, the environment, poor country peasants, many developing
country
agricultural industries, and urban laborers in both developed and developing
countries
facing wage competition from rural migrants and US taxpayers. The winner:
corporate
agribusiness.
