The farm bill alone is stealing $81 billion from you and giving it to wealthy agribusiness concerns.

Mr. Farrah has this one wrong by just an order of magnitude. The ten year cost of the farm bill is estimated at $180 billion!

Actually, only about a third of an order of magnitude, if the numbers are as given (an order of magnitude is a factor of 10; two orders of magnitude are a factor of 100; 1/2 order of magnitude is a factor of 3.16; 1/3 order of magnitude is a factor of 2.15; and .30 orders of magnitude is a factor of 2).
