They become a tool of partisan politics. The idea that an outcome should be guaranteed by the government makes me shake my head. Farmers are entrepreneurs just like any other business.

    Forgive all small farm loans made by large federal banks since they created the money from nothing. That should help small farmers and force the GD banksters into a final death spiral, the exact free market remedy for their anti-productive anti-liberty non-free market methods.
    Hell, forgive all loans made to all individual native born and naturalized Americans. Put some producer assets back in the everyday economy instead of bankster super-yachts, drugs, and prostitutes. (With apologies to hard working prostitutes and yacht builders.)
