DispatchAlerts KatieWedell skychadde Irresponsible to say climate change, when it's clearly banking and government regulations as the central reason.

KatieWedell skychadde DispatchAlerts Climate change my Ass. Over environmental regulations and China are causing these people to lose their livelihoods. Blame the stupid Liberal policies which are almost always against Farmers. Obama was the biggest culprit.
