Thats the key word subsidizing certain farmers. Farm subsidies are intended to help struggling family farmers. Instead, they harm them by excluding them from most subsidies, financing the consolidation of family farms, and raising land values to levels that prevent young people from entering farming. The subsidy most times only give monies to big corporate farms.

The sale of water on private lands to help big corporate oil is taking from us all. We all need freash water to survive let alone we sell it to produce big profits for oil.
