House Republicans Fail to Help Farmers

Climate change makes droughts like the one gripping much of the country more likely.  But modern Republicans are no longer the party of Lincoln:

The legitimate object of government, is to do for a community of people, whatever they need to have done, but can not do, at all, or can not, so well do, for themselves -- in their separate, and individual capacities.

Congress cannot get its act together to help farmers because organizations like Heritage Action believe that when disaster programs expire then we all need to be prepared on our own for events like severe drought.
