Farm subsidies is a great example, and I'm glad to hear more people understand the issue.
It is a good example because most people, when explained the situation, would opt to have more competition and help the third world with trade rather than aid. Americans think a third of the federal budget goes to foreign aid. Ridiculous.
Such a small percentage of people work in farming that it should be easy to convince people to make the change. People fear the lobby.
