and when I googled meat subsidies all the hits that said there was such a thing came from the same place.....now perhaps they are including the meat that the school lunch program purchases (school lunches actually being a part of the agricultural budget).....but they aren't subsidies.....I assume, though, that the claim results from including corn subsidies under "meat" instead of under "grain".......
