Every day, somebody at work or in my family bashes obama for aparently being the only president to give money away. According to most everyone I'm around, the only reason anyone is unemployed or doesn't have healthcare is because obama gives them every thing for free. It's as if obama is the 1st president to sign off on spending.
Then you read the link above... farm subsidies... talk about free money! As if homeland security isn't a big enough waste of money, we have farm subsidies. Basically, a guy takes advantage of our freedom and CHOOSES farming as his occupation. Or better yet, inherits a farming business. A lot of times a HUGE farm. So then these guys fall on hard times or whatever... and the government bails them out. Just like they bailed out the banks and GM and Chrysler. Now most who claim to be republican or conservative will come on here and say we have the freedom to succeed AND the freedom to fail. But evidently in the case of farmers... they don't feel that way. They deserve a bailout. I took my freedom and chose my profession. And no republican would be in favor of bailing me out if I lose MY job(Nor would I expect them to). But farmers... the government uses MY tax dollars to bail out HUGE corporate farms and those who vote republican are saying THAT is okay. But the elderly person living downtown... they don't deserve it because they're LAZY.
