Nixon controlled rents for awhile..........Now, it is about time that stupid Trump started controlling food prices..............Instead of a proposal that would cut food stamps by 29%.......Talk about a half-wit for a "president"........

If my memory serves me correctly another president attempted to mess with Food Stamps but they I believe are Federal.That particular president was prevented from doing so.

Price control doesn't work on foodstuffs. It never has and never will.

What does work though is healthy competition along the entire food supply chain, from paddock to plate. That's what keeps food prices down.

you sell to U.S.? We need to tax food imports 2000 %, thatll make America great again and the poor and former middle class will still have to buy food at hugely inflated prices from giant agricultural corporations in America. Trump has it all figured out. Hes smart, smart, smaart. Hes a business man!

facts

Worldwide obesity has more than doubled since 1980.
In 2014, more than 1.9 billion adults, 18 years and older, were overweight.
Of these over 600 million were obese.
39% of adults aged 18 years and over were overweight in 2014, and 13% were obese.

Most of the world's population live in countries where overweight and obesity kills more people than underweight.

There was a time 18 months back that some US beef wholesalers could not source product . Trump understands that a hungry man is a hungry man . Take one look at Trumpys voters , would you want to tell them that you have priced beef out of their reach by imposing tariffs on above quota NZ beef ? Black man with flappy ears had your officials relax the beef quota to allow more product in .

I doubt you would ever be able to understand just what farmers went through from '85 to 1990 . A time when farmers were expected to produce for nothing while their business were controlled by the banks . Many farmers killed themselves during that time . I personally knew one and knew of others . MAKE NO MISTAKE ON THIS MATTER , I NAIL MY COULRS TO THE WALL . I support those who produce the food to feed the likes of you . We , and I know I am not alone on this matter , won't be producing food any more to feed the thankless who want it for nothing .

You missed my point...your argument would have meant more leaving out the black man with floppy ears...but you cannot help yourself...

That is the main reason why I think many do not engage in the political threads...very toxic...
