Corn?

[Rage Against the McKee]

The homestead act wasn't lucrative at all, really. The government had to dupe people into believing that they were moving into a railroad town to get people to take that free land in many cases. It was a direct ticket to poverty for the most part. The ancestors of the original settlers are definitely reaping the benefits of it, though.

But seriously cream corn is awful.  It just spreads out all over your plate and gets into all your other food.  More like corn soup.

canned cream corn maybe. BUT LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HOME COOKIN DELICIOUS CREAMED CORN

Creamed corn is disturbing, now stop talking about it

The homestead act is completely irrelevant to this discussion. Stop being a dumbass.

If you want to talk about tangential crap, talk about people who made a fortune by being stupid and subsidized, talk about every Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) in So Cal who bought a house in 1990 with no expectation of owning anything other than a home, who watched it increase in value by a multiple of 10, who then decided they were a real estate investor and cashed out the equity to buy whatever (bigger house, more house, mercedes, motor cycle, boat), who defaulted on their mortgage in 2008 and then got a hamp mod so they could keep their house and got to keep all the stupid crap they bought.

And who do you think buys the food the farmers produce? Poor people on government assistance. I mean food stamps are a dept. of Ag program

Hi demand, my name is supply, have we met?  I'm pretty someone in here has already pointed out input costs, as well.
