Tell Me if I’m wrong. I need truth in order to operate effectively. The Bible says truth will make you free. I think with proper evidence I will know the truth when I see it.

So far as I can see from the evidence:

1. In the beginning the primary reason for Subsidies and Government Stimulus is to garner votes for one or more Politicians. This includes Tax exemptions and rebates for the sake of discussion.
• This evidence should be apparent.

2. Subsidies and Stimulus and tax exemptions are never carried out judiciously. They never solve the problem as intended. They distort free enterprise and wealth.
• I was raised on a peanut farm, back in the 30s, There was government support on peanuts. When I went in the lunch room at school, there was always big bowls of peanut butter on all the tables. That was the beginning of free school lunch. I have never understood why we needed all of those peanuts. The next step was to limit the number of acres a farmer could plant. If there was too many why didn’t the government stop price support.
I know a dairy farmer who a few years ago was struggling to make a living. Some politician decided the way to reduce the amount of money for milk support was to buy the cows. Why couldn’t we stop the support and let the price of milk go up. The WHY brings up another issue. Anyway this guy who was working hard to barely make a living sold his cows, with government support, for over a million dollars. Part of the government deal, he couldn’t open another dairy, some investor from California bought it and is milking cows there today and the price support hasn’t stopped.

3. These things are never stopped because it would hurt those involved, who budgeted for planned for, bought equipment for etc. More importantly it would be suicide to any politician that voted to stop them.

3. Why couldn’t we have an Income tax that taxes everyone at the same rate? Why do we exempt some people from paying sales tax? Failure to do so simply creates fraud and unfairness. I got a neighbor whose only property is a house and lot, doesn’t even have a garden. The only animal he owns is a dog yet he drives a pickup with farm tags on it. That is very common.

4. Can anybody tell me how we got here and more important how are we going to get out. If we can’t we will soon loose our freedom. Evidence -History

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the ...
