A way to help the poor is to let them go where the work is, regardless of borders. Studies show that immigrants don't take jobs from others, they add to the economy and help create more jobs. Respect for human rights and compassion for the world's poor require that we relax immigration restrictions. All business people, including farmers, should be able to offer their products in a free market without being subsidized by others. The way to help both producers and consumers is to remove government programs and restrictions which have damaged America's free enterprise system.
Subsidies are harmful and unfair.
Let's stop this nonsense. Then business could operate in a free market and all of us could be better fed, clothed and housed at lower cost. Free trade provides consumers with better goods at lower prices. With free trade, consumers pay lower prices for products and thereby have more money left to spend on other goods, domestic as well as foreign. Free trade also helps the cause of world peace.
