Joni's Poverty. Is she talking about the Farm Crisis of the 80's? She was 10 in 1980.
The rest of the country called it the Reagan Revolution. It was a shitty time to have a farm loan, markets and land prices went down. Banks called in loans, many lost their family farms. Her parents voted for the father of the fat cat freeway to unbridled greed. Let the markets and banks run free they know best. Bust the unions raid the middle class. Don't worry about that shit Joni you are a winner now, but you are blind as a bat.
Sen. Joni Ernst (Android, mfg. by Koch Industries)
