Factors
Influencing ACRE Program Enrollment
Authorized by the 2008 Farm Act, the Average Crop Revenue Election
(ACRE) program is the first revenue-based, income-support program
that calculates payments using recent market prices and a producer’s
actual plantings. The payments are triggered when a farm’s
revenue and State revenue (price multiplied by yield per planted
acre) fall below a calculated guarantee for a crop. By contrast,
other income-support programs are based on legislated rates and
support levels, computed using a farm’s base acres and payment
yields. Had the ACRE program been available during crop years
1996-2008, this report shows that farmers would have benefited
more from participating in 2002 Farm Act programs than in the
hypothetical ACRE program. The report further suggests that,
for 2009-12, producers of corn, soybeans, wheat, and rice are
likely to benefit more from the ACRE program than from the price-based,
income-support programs. Initial enrollment data suggest that
factors aside from expected market prices and yields entered
into the enrollment decision such as producer risk preferences
and initial learning and negotiation costs. Data indicate that
about 8 percent of farms with almost 13 percent of eligible base
acres elected to participate in ACRE, which is less than might
be expected given price and yield-based analysis alone.

A violent Iranian government crackdown
on protesters this weekend has reportedly resulted in multiple
deaths, as well as the arrests of hundreds of demonstrators,
including several political figures and human rights activists.
The continued government suppression since the contested June
presidential elections has drawn sharp international criticism.
The United States will always bear witness for and stand by those

Where
the Road to Health Reform Began
Posted by Jen Cannistra on December 29, 2009 at 11:05 AM EST
About a year ago, those of us working on
the Presidential Transition were taking the first steps on the
road towards reforming our health care system under the Obama
Administration. We knew that this wasn’t an academic issue
or an issue just for the political scoreboards – we had
to hear from the American people first on exactly what problems
they were facing, and what they wanted to see changed.

Fed
proposes term deposits for exit strategy
from MarketWatch.com - MarketPulse
LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- The U.S. Federal
Reserve's policy board said Monday it is proposing setting up
a a term deposit facility that could be used to drain funds as
part of an exit strategy from its massive easing measures taken
in response to the financial crisis. The proposal would allow
Fed banks to offer interest-bearing term deposits to eligible
institutions through an auction mechanism. "Term deposits
would be one of several tools that the Federal Reserve could
employ to drain reserves to support the effective implementation
of monetary policy," the Fed said in a statement, adding,
the move "is one component of a process of prudent planning
on the part of the Federal Reserve and has no implications for
monetary policy decisions in the near term."

condemns Israel construction in East Jerusalem
Posted: December 28th, 2009 01:09 PM ET
(CNN) - White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs issued the following
statement on reports Israel says it will build nearly 700 housing
units in East Jerusalem, despite continued American opposition.
"The United States opposes new Israeli
construction in East Jerusalem. The status of Jerusalem is a
permanent status issue that must be resolved by the parties through
negotiations and supported by the international community. Neither
party should engage in efforts or take actions that could unilaterally
pre-empt, or appear to pre-empt, negotiations. Rather, both parties
should return to negotiations without preconditions as soon as
possible. The United States recognizes that Jerusalem is a deeply
important issue for Israelis and Palestinians, and for Jews,
Muslims, and Christians. We believe that through good faith negotiations
the parties can mutually agree on an outcome that realizes the
aspirations of both parties for Jerusalem, and safeguards its
status for people around the world."

Odds
of Airborne Terror
Nate Silver notes that from October 1999 through September 2009
there has been one terrorist incident per 16,553,385 airplane
departures.
Furthermore, "the odds of being on
given departure which is the subject of a terrorist incident
have been 1 in 10,408,947 over the past decade. By contrast,
the odds of being struck by lightning in a given year are about
1 in 500,000. This means that you could board 20 flights per
year and still be less likely to be the subject of an attempted
terrorist attack than to be struck by lightning."

Nancy Cronk sent a message to the members
of I AM A HEALTH INSURANCE REFORM HERO!!!
Happy New Year, Everyone!
The question is no longer, "Should
we offer health care to all Americans?" The question now
is, "How?"
The Senate bill is not perfect, but it
does offer improvements to the failing system we have now. We
need to balance all the anti-reform letters-to-the-editor in
the Denver Post with some that are pro-reform. Can you help?
If you have a few minutes, could you write
a short (150 words or less) paragraph about why you support the
bill (or what you would like to see different in it), and email
it to me? I can edit it for you and then you can EASILY email
it to the Denver Post.
Thanks so much! My email address is njcronk@aol.com.
Happy New Year!
Talking Points: Why even the Senate bill
on health reform is better than what we have now:
1. Extends coverage to 31 million.
2. Ensures choice.
3. Stops insurance companies from denying care based on pre-existing
conditions.
4. Prevents discrimination based on gender, age, health.
5. Gurarantees you will never lose your coverage.... See More
6. Prevents lifetime and annual limits.
7. Creates insurance exchanges to force competition.
8. Lower premiums for families, especially those that will receive
subsidies.
9. Helps small businesses with tax credits and through the exchanges.
10. Eliminates some waste and fraud in Medicare.
11. Eliminates half of the Medicare Part D donut hole.
12. Extends the life of the Medicare trust fund.
13. Rewards doctors for quality of care rather than quantity
of care.
14. CUTS THE DEFICIT BY $30 BILLION OVER 10 YEARS.

What
Congress Did in 2009
The year 2009 may be better know for the debates it began rather
than finished, with health care overhaul and the cap and trade
energy proposal making progress but not reaching final passage
this year.
Congress.org reviews the year and finds
a handful of noteworthy legislation that didn't just get debated,
didn't just get a vote, but actually became law in 2009.

Republican
Blocks TSA Nominee
The Washington Post notes that an "alleged attempt to blow
up a transatlantic flight from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas
would be all-consuming for the administrator of the Transportation
Security Administration -- if there were one."
"Instead, the post remains vacant
because Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) has held up President Obama's
nominee in an effort to prevent TSA workers from joining a labor
union."

Gibbs
condemns Israel construction in East Jerusalem
Posted: December 28th, 2009 01:09 PM ET
(CNN) - White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs issued the following
statement on reports Israel says it will build nearly 700 housing
units in East Jerusalem, despite continued American opposition.
"The United States opposes new Israeli
construction in East Jerusalem. The status of Jerusalem is a
permanent status issue that must be resolved by the parties through
negotiations and supported by the international community. Neither
party should engage in efforts or take actions that could unilaterally
pre-empt, or appear to pre-empt, negotiations. Rather, both parties
should return to negotiations without preconditions as soon as
possible. The United States recognizes that Jerusalem is a deeply
important issue for Israelis and Palestinians, and for Jews,
Muslims, and Christians. We believe that through good faith negotiations
the parties can mutually agree on an outcome that realizes the
aspirations of both parties for Jerusalem, and safeguards its
status for people around the world."

Odds
of Airborne Terror
Nate Silver notes that from October 1999 through September 2009
there has been one terrorist incident per 16,553,385 airplane
departures.
Furthermore, "the odds of being on
given departure which is the subject of a terrorist incident
have been 1 in 10,408,947 over the past decade. By contrast,
the odds of being struck by lightning in a given year are about
1 in 500,000. This means that you could board 20 flights per
year and still be less likely to be the subject of an attempted
terrorist attack than to be struck by lightning."
