Kvetching and Bitching: Corn Farmers

This is at least the second 'front-page' story on the topic, both of which featured a bunch of bitching and kvetching from corn-growers.  Can't say they're not trying to get attention for their wailing and snorting.

Here's the operative part, with comedy gold:

...Dalton says the issue hinges on the exemptions being granted to small refineries. According to him, those displaced requirements are supposed to be reallocated to other refineries under current law, but he says that hasn’t occurred in recent years. 

According to him, Trump’s proposal from the beginning of October would have made up for that unmet requirement by adding those gallons to the renewable fuel standard over the next three years, driving up demand and prices for both corn and ethanol. 

“That was the Trump deal, that was what he promised… to make us whole again,” Dalton told WisBusiness.com. “If they followed that, everybody would be happy.” ...

Except consumers who purchase corn-based foods.  That goes about triple for people in poverty worldwide, who consume oodles of corn-based goods.

Or consumers who like their small engines in outdoor power equipment and boats.

To Dalton and Big Ag, "everybody" is Dalton and Big Ag.  Sorry, Charlie, that ain't good enough.
