It's only about a week or so that Andrew Bartlett of the Democrats suggested that our farmers, in trying to make a living on the land, should be told to toss it in and further funding was money wasted. Maybe his principle applies here. In spite of vast sums of money spent trying to help these people our efforst have been wasted.
