Speaking of government intervention on family farms...a few years back I heard this on either Hannity or Rush, can't remember which. A family farm in New England somewhere had been continually farmed for something like 140 years. Then the old folks died and none of the kids wanted to farm it so it lay fallow for 10 years. One of the kids decided to farm it again. Somehow the EPA discovered some kind of wetland plants in a field even though there was no water anywhere near it. They declared the place to be a wetland and farming was prohibited. I don't remember how the EPA got on the place or if it was ever resolved.
