5. "...federal marketing program that can take nearly half of their crop..."

So I'm confused.

The Feds just pull up during harvest time and haul away "nearly" (what exactly does that mean) half of their crop?

Since we've seen how well, free/unregulated markets work out, are they sure they want this?

I'm thinking more about, SURE, take away the regs...and see how fast the market collapses and drives dozens and dozens of growers
out of business forever.

Slippery slope?
