They haven't scrapped it at all, nobody is pushing for that. They've reformed it a little, but France won't budge much.

Farm subsidies are one of the biggest evils in the world.

I'm not picking on the US, Europe is a lot worse, but did you know that the US gave $38 Billion in aid to Africa last year, but the subsidies it gives to its own farmers cost Africa $42 Billion?
