Delaware Young Farmers Program Helps 10 Farm Families Purchase Land In First Year
Farmers from Kent and Sussex Counties all received help purchasing land - nearly 900 acres total - from the Delaware Young Farmers Program, marking its first year.
I look forward to seeing the commenters complaining about this welfare program as much as they complain about food stamps and other welfare. Just because farmers are getting the benefit of this program does not make it any better than an unemployed mother of 2 using food stamps. It's time everyone (including farmers) get off the government's teat. If these farmers can't afford the land or don't qualify for loans, the state's taxpayers shouldn't be subsidizing them.

This is why this country will never pay off its debt and unemployment will stay high.
