Is the policy of using government subsidies to pay farmers to NOT grow food an unnecessary manipulation and cost burden that is truly being done via manipulation through the Extraterrestrial Alliance?

This is another of their schemes and is justified on the grounds of evening out the ups and downs of the commodity market to maintain working farms, even under difficult circumstances, and it becomes an artificial means of manipulating that is designed to create greater distortion and greater economic burden in the end. There is always a rationale, but the rationale always assumes people cannot think and act in a way that is reasonable. The reality is, when people are left on their own, truly without manipulation, they will come together and find a happy medium and choose a strategy that results in an outcome that meets the higher good so they can be part of something that works and something they can take pride in. No one wants to be a villain, so when people accept this role without seeming to mind perpetuating an evil, there is something deeply wrong, and what is missing is the level of influence to keep people going under such circumstances and not rebelling and second-guessing their own feelings and behavior. That is the case here with this example as well, that to distort market forces with an overlay of government mismanagement, never works well and often compounds the distortion and causes losses that otherwise would not occur, that offset the potential benefits that are a part of the stated aims in having the manipulation sanctioned by the government to ostensibly improve things. This is why the reputation of government for being inefficient and to have the characteristic that is widely known now, almost universally known, to create many, many unneeded and wasteful programs, or programs that become obsolete with respect to the original reason for being, continue unabated indefinitely and are simply voted, again and again, to be funded every year going forward. This is quite illogical and what one could even say insane, considering the tremendous debt of governments that grows by leaps and bounds quite steadily with no serious attempt to reign in costs, but only to add further debt through increased spending. This is a prescription for disaster that has been underway for many, many years and will end in disaster. People see this coming and comment on it frequently, but no one can do anything. That too is a very clear sign that people are manipulated to be ineffectual in taking action to change things for the better.
