The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Our data comes directly from the USDA. Taxpayer funded subsides don’t just go to Manhattan, either. Check out farm subsidy maps of these other cities like:

I do know there’s a small zoo with a “working dairy farm” in Central Park. I notice none of those red dots in the map are in Central Park. Go figure.

Nice catch, by the way.
