## Resource

American family farms are being systematically destroyed by the very government bills claiming to protect them. I’m joined by fourth-generation farmer and Farm Action Fund President Joe Maxwell to expose the massive corporate monopolies, land-grabs, and venture socialism hidden inside the $1.5 trillion farm bill. We dive deep into how taxpayer money is weaponized to drive up agricultural land prices, incentivize feed and fuel crops over actual food, and allow foreign conglomerates and hedge funds to dominate the meatpacking industry. If you want to know why beef prices are at record highs while cattle ranchers go bankrupt, the answer is in the cronyism of our agricultural policies. It is time to break up the monopolies, end crony subsidies and regulatory capture, pass the PRIME Act, and restore American food security. Learn more about your ad choices.
