Skunks At A Garden Party.

The article focuses on U.S. Representative Ron Kind's proposal to end all farm programs within a few years in favor of creating farmer savings accounts, and the reaction of fellow members to his suggestion. He made the statement in the Agriculture General Farm Commodities Subcommittee hearing. Representative Frank Lucas described the proposal as frightening and implored Democrats to stop him from offering it during House debates. Representative Earl Pomeroy, too joined Lucas in the tirade.
