According to the American Family Association, our esteemed political class has apparently invented a whole new kind of insurance: catastrophic Apis mellifera cover. For those without a Latin-English dictionary, that would be bee insurance:
"Pg. 102 of Senate Appropriations Committee report: "The Secretary shall use up to $ 50,000,000 per year, and $150,000,000 in the case of 2009, from the Trust Fund to provide emergency relief to eligible producers of livestock, honey bees, and farm-raised fish to aid in the reduction of losses due to disease, adverse weather, or other conditions, such as blizzards and wildfires, as determined by the Secretary")" That buzzing sound you hear may be a previously uninsured hive stopping by to bind coverage. Or it could just be the innocent taxpayer getting stung again.
