Republicans Who Voted To Cut Food Stamps and Received Large Farm Subsidies

These Republicans Who Voted To Cut Food Stamps Personally Received Large Farm Subsidies

During the food stamp debate, GOP Rep. Stephen Fincher, who received thousands in farm subsidies, responded to a Democratic Congressman during the debate over the cuts by quoting the bible, saying “the one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”

Fincher himself has received his own large share of government money. From 1999 to 2012, Stephen & Lynn Fincher Farms received $3,483,824 in agriculture subsidies. Last year he took in $70,574 alone.

Well, is it any surprise? These are "feed the poor and they will breed" Republicans. With a health care plan of "let him die", they will do anything. Besides, they are privileged. Most got their money the old fashioned way, they inherited it.

So now we have a new definition of "cutting"

Wanting to increase something by a little less than someone else wants to increase it is know as wanting to CUT it.

Jeez.

You folks are pathetic.

Yeah, I just put up a thread about the lie that the left is touting.

Only a 57% increase instead of a 65% increase to a progressive = making grandma eat cat food.

Sheesh.

 

[tinydancer]

The truth is out there. One just has to get past lying liberals.

The Republicans want to increase food stamp spending 57%. The Democrats had previously planned to increase it by 65% (to $764 billion over 10 years instead of the $725 billion in the Republican bill), so they depict the Republicans as “meanspirited class warriors” seeking “deep cuts.”

Sure it is. Farm subsidies is a nice way of saying GOP redneck welfare.

 

[Claudette]

Hell. Get rid of all the farm subsidies, tax loopholes and tax breaks.

Oh wait. I fogot. All the freeloaders would scream like stuck pigs especially on those tax breaks. Never mind.

 

[tinydancer]

Oh and if the "recovery" is going oh so well, shouldn't food stamp usage be going down, not up?

Ha,ha, you really think these Congressmen are working on a farm? That's too funny!

 

[Mertex]

What is truly amazing is that the party that was once "compassionate conservative" cannot see the disconnect to the fact that rich Congressmen who receive boo-coo amounts of money by way of subsidies are whining about the miniscule "poor people" are getting to buy food.

Yeah, the amount that goes to welfare is draining our coffers, not the subsidies to the rich.

If he owns it, then why shouldn't he get it? He is the one funding it and paying operating costs. The point is, that farm is PRODUCING a product. How in the hell is that the same as receiving WELFARE for doing NOTHING?

Well.. except the GOPers and Conservatives who are against subsidies just like they are against individual or corporate welfare...

And lest we forget that the DEMs are FALSELY putting this as the GOP CUTTING food stamps (I wish they actually were cutting food stamps)...

Idiot

Try telling the truth.

The Republicans voted to increase the spending in the Food Stamp budget. Just not as much as the Democrats wanted them to.

R's voted for a $725 BILLION increase over 10 years. That's not freaking chump change.

They are called "democrats" bankrolling their cronies on taxpayer dime is what the GOP are all about.
