Want to Know Anything About the Farm Bill?

Played golf today with a fellow who is an MSU Ag Econ professor, said he is a Democrat and a visiting scholar at AEI, an unusual combination to say the least. He confirmed that most Ag programs mostly subsidize people who are well off. At this point in his career he knows his subject matter inside and out. He joked that he wrote the book on crop insurance. Turns out he did. I said that's OK, so long as you didn't write the book on flood insurance. I may have spoken too soon. That was before I saw the title of his book.
