You know what would make farming even cheaper? Child labour. So would indentured servitude. Or why not consider slavery? After all we've established that we're fine with breaking the law so that certain industries have lower operating costs, so these should all be on the table. No one wants to pay more for food.
Besides, child slaves do the jobs Americans don't want to do! You're socially immoral if you don't support it.

Would you rather your tax dollars were used to subsidize farmers or do you just want to pay more for food?

We kinda kept it around in the guise of our prison labor system...
You just figured it out.
What's the difference?
