If the farmer is getting money because he overproduced then it's his fault and he should just have to deal with it. Most of the banks, at least the ones that didn't fail paid that money back. No one helps pay my insurance for home, auto, health or life. No one helps the average business pay their insurance either. Most businesses never got any type of bail out. Yet farmers consistently get some type of help every year. Someone drawing SS? They paid into that system! But most farmers try their darnedest to avoid paying taxes if they can then they expect at least subsidized crop insurance. That's almost as bad as the minimum wage worker getting free health care on top of more back in taxes than they pay in. And yea, that to a large extent is the minimum wage workers fault in the majority of the cases. A lot of them have those jobs because they didn't care to get any type of job training after high school. Maybe they should have just become farmers.
And really CRP may help out the land owner but it helps the farmer too as it keeps some land out of production. So while it is a subsidy to the land owner it's a back door subsidy to the farmer.
