There’s ample evidence that handouts and tariffs only stifle innovation and delay the inevitable. Companies fail into a spiral of incompetent leadership and desperate workers demanding more from a shrinking business. Anyone with ambition and ideas wants to work in an industry that has a future. At least not the kind of future a career in a government dependent industry like Post Office Office or DMV offer. Should we really add agriculture to the list?

The farmers are blocking grain from Ukraine both by rail and by truck. They then are opening and dumping the grain on the ground from these stopped transports. Ukraine is trying to survive the Russian invasion and need every export they can muster.
