Paperback. Condizione: New. From any coherent policy perspective, agricultural policy in the United States is in total disarray. Not surprisingly, persistent and pervasive rent-seeking by well-funded lobbies explains many of the complex and often internally inconsistent federal programs that fall under the umbrella of US agricultural policy. This two-volume examination of US agricultural policies includes analyses on the federal crop insurance program, the sugar program, constraints on domestic production, and policy-mandated price discrimination. Those subsidy programs and other forms of support are deliberately structured to funnel the vast majority of their benefits to large farm businesses and, in the case of agricultural insurance, an entire segment of the insurance industry that would not otherwise exist. They do nothing to alleviate rural poverty and in most cases encourage farm and other agricultural businesses to waste some of society's scarce resources. Some federal programs do provide benefits for society as a whole. However, collusion among lobbies with competing interests has caused many of those programs to be inefficient.Agricultural Policy in Disarray provides fascinating, detailed, and contemporary evidence of how rent-seeking by small, well-organized interest groups results in government policies that do little good and much harm.…

The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the policies that negatively influence unit readiness. The aim is to provide fully manned units without cross-leveling Soldiers. Changes are required for the ARNG to effectively, and efficiently meet the personnel readiness requirements of the Combatant Commanders and Governors as they employ ARNG units to accomplish federal and state missions. This thesis examines the policies affecting unit stabilization, medical and dental readiness, mobilization, and individuals account.…
