The subsidies are not increasing profits for farmers. In fact it is actually the only profit they make, as corn is sold at or below cost.

Of course, we could do away with the subsidies, which is something I am unsure on where I stand, but the price of corn will sky rocket, and our food costs will go through the roof, I doubt many of you truly understand how many products in your local grocery store use some form of corn based ingredient as a key ingredient. That doesnt even take into account the fact that it is used as the main feed for our meat.

This is not true. More corn will be grown (the government still pays for peeps not to grow corn), resulting in more supply. This will make the demand go down, and in turn, costs for consumers.
