It's all base on the "Golden Rule"
The farmer will do whatever will make him the most money.
The money they get for setting aside some land is not enough
to produce a crop.
So one question would be do you want the taxpayer to shell out more
to the farmer so he will plant more corn?
They have the ability to produce more of whatever is wanted.
But no one is willing to pay them for their product.
