From the second link:

This is largely because of U.S. agricultural policies. While one part of the U.S. government speaks of the need to alleviate Third World poverty, another is writing subsidy checks to American farmers, which encourages them to undersell Third World farmers.
So? They dump their illegals we dump genetically modified corn.

What's the problem? They want the corn to make money so they buy what they can to maximize production.

PRetty words but it is just a "buy a farmer" vote which explains the check. People want to have a govt to take care of them from cradle to grave so the govt meddles in all affairs and makes a bigger mess on the whole.
