4.0 out of 5 stars Well written polemic, February 5, 2005

This review is from: The Farm Fiasco (Paperback)

This, along with the Free Trade fiasco book, are two of this authors finest books and written in an over-the-top, bombastic, but shockingly accurate way.

Learn how the government wastes $100 billion a year, which is about 1000 bucks for each 'hard' taxpayer out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read , March 2, 2009

This review is from: The Farm Fiasco (Paperback)

This book lays out in detail the history, and the basic *fiasco* (which it is) leading up to today's farm outlays in each years farm bills. The pork that goes to each industry is enormous, and wasteful, and is laid out in this book. Even though this book was written a while ago, it still speaks to today, being that we are still paying scads of money for outlays to farms that are raking in large amounts of money, not "the family farm" as some try to portray.
