Should Obama sacrifice livestock to help the economy and the poor like FDR did?

Under the Agricultural Adjustment Act the government payed farmers to kill livestock and not grow crops to help the economy. And it only took many years before the economy got going again.

    We reelected Obama and we will get what we asked for the Rooster is coming home to roost. The long necked Black Delaware always loses the cock fight and it won't take us long to see what a terrible mistake we have made electing him.

    That act has never been removed. Many farmers are still being paid not to raise livestock or grow crops. We are still subsidizing the cotton industry too.

    Yet people wonder where the soup lines came from. Yet still they hail FDR as some great president.

    No, he should sacrifice livestock to protect the environment. Cows are a major pollutant.
