You forget that that a large government that subsidizes farmers not to farm is involved. Capitalism has been hobbled.

The kids I grew up with in the farm-country of Michigan told me that the smart farmers, who could, kept wheat off the market if the price was too low to be profitable. I wonder how much wheat has to be sold to make the various payments due to poor financial planning?

Lentils and Hummus - I would be embarrassed to grow those crops. Wheat and corn - now that is AMERICA!

“What about women? I could use a little help in that area.”
actually, too much extra estrogen can be bad for females.
as far as sex drive goes, very tiny doses of testosterone for females can work wonders in that department. gotta be careful with that stuff though for the ladies, like 1/100 of what males need.
