Instead of subsidizing these things we should be buying out farmers who support these industries so we can restore the land to something approaching it's natural state.

Monoculture is an environmental disaster. Our nation is covered by vast wastelands of corn, wheat, and soybeans which are used to make unhealthy foods like bacon and high fructose corn syrup, or to make fuel for dirty dangerous automobiles.
