Swap farm subsidies for renewable fuel investments
Seems more in the national interest to focus on renewable fuels/energy sources than just direct payments to farmers and agricultural companies.

As an Iowan city slicker, I've been saying this since I saw it and did the math. Ethanol is a viable alternative, not to oil, but to farm subsidies.
(Yes, we need the farms. No, I don't want them owned by Enron. No, we can't tax wealth without destroying farmers. They have massive wealth, and move a lot of money, but little profit. )
