But that's exactly my point. In states like Iowa and Minnesota, farmers have a major influence over politicians. Some politicians have mostly farmers as their constituents. So it really is a case of the politicians doing what the majority of their people want. That's really what they're supposed to do, so it's really hard to fault them, even though it might irritate non-farmers.
