not soy oil subsidies but any vegi oil subsidies. there are better oils that do NOT need or use GMO seed, masses of fertilizer pesticides and herbicides. also a graduated system if your making 1 mil you do not require as much help as a small farmer making 10k . there is one forest and real estate devolper in maine getting 233k last year 100k more than #2. disgusting
