Title: Farming in the U.S. Post by: Jitendra Hydonus on May 06, 2026 05:56 pm Brad Watson has spent his adult life milking cows at 5:30 AM on a farm that has been in his family for 140 years. But today, the barn is empty and the legacy is gone. We’re performing an autopsy on Butter Ridge Farm to see how a "Golden Age" for farmers turned into an extraction machine for Wall Street investors.
From the "Tariff Tax" that made equipment repairs impossible to the energy deregulation that tripled electric bills overnight, we look at the material reality behind the political slogans. And we follow the money to see who actually profits when the American family farm collapses—including some very familiar names in the Vice President's investment portfolio.

Follow us in Apple News Consumer prices rose 3.8% in April from a year earlier, a clear impact of higher gas prices since the start of the war with Iran. The figures, reported Tuesday by the Labor Department, surpassed the previous month’s reported increase of 3.3%. Economists polled by The Wall Street Journal had expected inflation of 3.7%. The context Higher energy prices due to the Iran war could filter through to many other goods in the coming months. For example, higher gas prices are pushing up the cost of transportation, which might in turn make food and clothing more expensive. A rise in natural-gas prices has already pushed up fertilizer costs, another reason food prices might rise. Lots of products, from lipstick to golf balls, could also be exposed to the turmoil in the Middle East since their production processes use oil derivatives. Economists worry that rising inflation will further eat into workers’ weekly earnings, resulting in lower demand for goods and services. Trump responds to high prices In response to the ripple effects of the war, President Trump said Monday that he supports suspending the federal gasoline tax. The average nationwide cost of one gallon of regular unleaded gasoline is roughly $4.50, compared with $3.14 a year ago, according to AAA. The Trump administration had planned to temporarily reduce tariffs on beef imports, in an effort to bring down prices, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. Later that day, after an outcry from some congressional Republicans and cattle ranchers, the Trump administration said it would delay that plan. Consumer sentiment hit a record low in April, largely due to soaring prices at the pump. Promotional photo by David Ryder/Bloomberg News. Write to Chao Deng at chao.deng@wsj.com |
