I am second to no one with my disdain for Congress. Well. I might be tied with about 300 million people. I mean, only 10% approve of the job they are doing. That means the Micky D's would have fired them 9 times ago if you want a blunt comparison.

Now the Agriculture Committee can't come up with a farm bill.  The supposed reason is a fight over food stamps; you know it as a program that helps people buy food to eat and stay alive. It's about $4.00 and change per day.

A provision in the bill that will soon expire because Congress doesn't give a rat's ass about poor people and they are going on recess (better known as fundraising vacations), so the price of milk is about to go from $4.00 a gallon to $7.00 and some. It may double.  That means it will take 2 days of food stamps to buy a gallon of milk instead of one.

I suppose kids can drink water instead.  Perhaps if they didn't want food, they could eat scraps of stale bread. No? Well better than the "let them eat cake" attitude these bozos carry around.
