If she did it had nothing to do with any of the EOs that were signed yesterday, or today.

Jesus H. Christ, that is not how executive orders work, if it was a tax thing it would mandate the IRS to write regulations to do x thing, which could very well be an inheritance thing, it wouldnt take effect, the thing wouldnt exist yet, at most a framework there is not actual implementation in EO's.

Inquiring minds.
Yep.

Family farms can become LLCs and they can have trusts.

Seems about 1/3 of the posts in this thread are people asking for the specific legislation/Executive order that caused someone to lose a farm yesterday.

The truth is, the American public has great empathy with family farmers, and it was heartbreaking the number of farms that were lost to generational farmers in the 1980's and 90's.

So pretty much everyone IS interested.

OP - got anything - at all - to back up the incredible tale you told in the first post?

Strange...I swear I saw this somewhere else on social media yesterday/today. What are the chances this is an original/factual story if the same phrase is being used elsewhere?

She pointed out that most "farm subsidies" have been hijacked, and re-routed to free school meals, & the remaining "subsidies" are just loan guarantees....not grants/giveaways like the media leads us all to believe.

She said the Federal Government is putting our food supply in peril. Very sad.
I thought the right wanted to end socialist programs like farm subsidies. Now you're complaining because they're ending?

Y'all make up what's left of your minds. "Loan guarantees" helps people help themselves. "Subsidies" are handouts. Tell your buddy to pull herself up by her bootstraps. If the business isn't viable, it doesn't deserve to be propped up with taxpayer dollars. Sorry, not sorry.

Your food supply has already been compromised by the reduction in the number of FDA inspectors on the job, and by the republicans refusing a lot of information that should be included on labels so consumers can make informed choices.

0. Zero percent chance.

OK, I need to read through the article and look into it, but could it really be related to the recent stimulus bill from December? It seems to have farm related stuff.

If she had enough inheritance from that farm to have to worry about that law, she should be thankful, not upset.
