But it sure is frustrating when farming areas claim to hate welfare because it's socialism while refusing to acknowledge the type of government welfare they rely on to live.
"I got mine, fuck you" is a pretty typical Republican attitude.
You are making big generalizations about the farmers and I don't think them being hypocritical in their beliefs is a reason to punish them. Subsidizing agriculture goes way back in American history and I would say overall it is a good thing. It gives people access to staple foods that would otherwise be inaccessible to most of the population.
I said "nothing in my opinion" to the question of what's wrong with subsidies. I'm not sure why you're suggesting I was attacking them.
I didn't generalize farmers, I generalized farming areas because there are political voting maps that demonstrate that.
Your response feels more like an agenda you've set out to explain, rather than a response to my comment.

"This landfill smells like shit."
"That's not true! That garbage pile over there came from a dumpster behind a candle company and they needed to dispose of last seasons stock!"
Nothing in my opinion.
