Mar 23, 2019 at 14:44 | comment | added | user11643 | I don't know about destroying food regularly, but it's been done in the past. Regularly, they instead favor paying farmers to not farm, so they never make the food. A good portion of subsidies from the USDA are designed to control pricing. You must remember that the USDA mission is to protect and define agricultural industry. They are not a consumer protection agency, like the BBB or others. | |

Link to timestamp. Quote claim. Simplify question. Remove ambiguity in title.
