Great interpretation of King Corn. The film is actually very complicated with a lot of detail. It's hard to sort out.

Another problem, however, is that the original film misses the policy cause of cheap corn: the lowering (1953-1995) and elimination (1996-) of corn price floors and supply management. The film implies adding subsidies is the cause, but that came later (1961, 1977 for rice). See my videos MIchael Pollan Rebuttal 1 & 2.
