Look at the farm subsidy database if you really want to see somewith the elevator manager that spent all his embezzled money on Africa hunting, this ki,d and McMartin farms there seems to be a lot of fraud and embezzling in the ag business.

How is this kid going to pay back this judgement?
i will have to actually find some old articles. but, i think the number being thrown around originally was 23 million in transactions or purchases or some shit like that. and they were making it read like he had actually defrauded folks of that amount. my thoughts on that were that number couldn't possibly be representative of actual losses others sustained unless he literally blew threw the 23 million on blow, hookers, fancy cars, mansions, and trips to amsterdam in 2 or 3 years. so, there must be actual assets to sell (grain elevators, etc... ) and some money in the bank. the 11 million could also be representative of losses to others. but, i still would think he must some way to pay back a big chunk of that... if he bought 23 million dollars worth of grain, even if he sold at a small loss, he must have a bunch of grain left or money someplace.

mind you... i know nothing about trading grain. maybe its just like trading stocks or gambling. and he just lost it all?
While most 20 something year old kids were sitting on the couch playing video games and smoking pot, this kid is out making his first million. Too bad he didn't use his ambition for good.
I find it odd that these hard working large farmers would get duped be this young kid. He must have had a hell of a sales pitch, and trusting personality.
Why is it odd? These are the same farmers who supported and are still supporting a president who is wrecking the farm economy here in ND. I read in the paper this week there are record farmer suicides and near record farming bankruptcies. I suppose the farmers were hoping this young kid could pull them out of the crap hole trump put them in.
as old white guys they deserve everything they get too - right lefty?
I don't see that anywhere in what I posted. I grew up on a farm and have voted Republican all my life but I know a dud president when I see one. Sounds like you are willing to sacrifice our farmers for whatever jolly trump is providing you.

So just let the Chinese hand our asses to us like they did with many other industries? Just let them dictate the terms in perpetuity. Gotcha.

Farmers were making money hand over fist not that long ago. I’d have been saving for the rainy day that comes for every industry... except government.

Did Trump control the $hit weather farmers got handed too? I don’t suppose weather has played a role in farmer distress. Nope - it’s all on dud Trump.
