Fuck all welfare, except for the few exceptions
Wouldnt it be a lot smarter to keep that extra money in the hands of individual Americans themselves? Where they can independently determine what products meet their needs best, and in the meantime, signal to businesses what new products and technologies they really want?
Fuck all welfare, except for the few exceptions

Sorry, it ain't Wanda in the trailer park with 5 different kids from 5 different dads...............

Let's view the big four on the list, because they drop off after that significantly:
(1) Agriculture: The BIG and RATIONAL fear is if we don't make our agricultural sector financially competitive it will be outsourced to cheaper LESS REGULATED countries such as China, Mexico and all of South America. We will then be dependent on outsource for our food as we are with oil. We can NEVER be dependent on imported food. It puts us at way too much of a vulnerable situation!
Federal farm programs redistribute wealth from taxpayers to a small group of relatively well-off farm businesses and landowners. The United States Department of Agriculture figures show that the average income of farm households has been consistently higher than the average of all U.S. households. In 2010, the average income of farm households was $84,400—or 25 percent higher than the $67,530 average of all U.S. households.6
Moreover, the majority of farm subsidies go to the largest farms. For example, the largest 10 percent of recipients received 68 percent of all commodity subsidies in 2010.7
(2) Energy: Another item we can't live without. Believe it or not TAX BENEFITS here bring down energy costs. Even small increases have devastating ripals throughout the country's economy. Energy costs effect everyone from homeowners, renters, business owners, drivers, shippers etc.!
(3) Applied R & D: Do you know what jobs we are losing to India? R & D jobs. R&D jobs are high paying jobs that allow companies to maintain a competitive edge and develop new products. These new products enhance quality of life, keep America competitive and provide countless jobs.
Here, rather than funding basic science research as a public good from which general applications might be produced by businesses, the U.S. government is instead providing funding directly to corporations for the purpose of developing specific products and services, even if they don’t make any real business sense.
(4) Housing: Where do you think alot of this money goes to? Cheap housing for power people. Construction in this country is a MAJOR employer of high paying jobs and a major purchaser of US based manufactured products such as pipes, tubes, tubes, air conditioners, steel, wood etc. They should have an incentive to buy more and build more.
Because it was a smartass remark about Israel?
So Israel getting money is worse than our enemies?
