| Quote | "The $288 billion abomination is a virtual candy store for big agribusiness -- all paid for by taxpayers. Farmers are earning record prices for many crops, yet the measure -- passed 79-14 in the Senate last week -- showers them with increased subsidies and direct payments. If there's a microcosm of what's wrong with Washington, this is it."
