When Doctors and lawyers are making more money farming you know somethings wrong. I joke with the farmers. I tell them I hope I'm as broke as them one day or If you aren't getting rich farming you need a better accountant.
Subsidies are out of control in the agriculture industry for sure. Corporate welfare in this country is endemic. Most egregious is Exxon, the most profitable corporation in history, getting most of the $4 billion we subsidize our oil companies annually. Even though they are very profitable, clipping along at $50 billion a quarter . . . even though they require no incentives.
The huge problem here is the Democrats aren't only going after the few, and reletively small, subsidies oil companies receive. They are going after several ordinary business deductions, like section 199. They billions of ordinary bussiness deductions in with the subsidies and say it is all subsidy. That is a lie.
If you want to talk about a war on women, then look no further than the social welfare programs installed by Democratic lawmakers. Women are encouraged to stay unmarried and continue to procreate while receiving money from taxpayers. A female child from a welfare home is far more likely to remain on welfare as an adult. The Dem talking points...."you want 'x', we'll give you money for it", Republicans hate women, we can make you equal. The truth is, welfare programs are the single largest arsenal on the war on women and encourages a lifetime of dependence on the government teat, rather that fostering the idea of financial independence through hard work and sacrifice. Jeebus, people.
Don't you know that is "crazy hate talk"? That has been the unintended concequense of the great society and its follow on programs. Pat Moynihan pointed this out many years ago and the trend between single parent families and poverty is direct. A look at housing projects show generations of people who have lost the capacity to live without government support. Do they want to live in poverty and in such a "hell hole"? NO but they are so dependent on government support and restrictions that trap them in the spider's web of welfare they have no idea or opportunity to escape. This gives rise to hopelessness of the gangs and drugs as well as babies having babies that do so much damage.They are capable and intelligent enough to prosper but the burden of the welfare state is so great that few have the ability or fortune to escape. That doesn't mean there are times and circumstances that people need help and help from the state is the only solution; there are. However as it is constituted the morass of federal and federal mandated welfare and rules usually do the opposite of the stated intention and make welfare a longterm trap. It is a delicate balance and I don't pretend to know the solution. I see the present failed system and ask WHY? I see those who have succeeded and escaped the cycle and ask WHY NOT the rest?
Instead of cattle the Democrats farm sheople. Keep them poor, ignorant, and sucking the government tit and they have no reason to improve themselves.
thats complete nonsense abortion policies contradict what you are saying, its about women having a choice and not being told what to do with their body, that has zero to do with welfare and having more children. Some people want to stay on welfare but the majority of people on it are trying to get off of it. Please dont generalize about what women on welfare are thinking. Also people on welfare can only be on it so long until they have to find work, no one can stay on welfare forever nowadays.
