It comes to a whole lot of money for some of these farmers. I looked up one of my relatives in Kansas and he had averaged about $80,000 per year in farm subsidies.

So I assume you must agree. We NEED LESS government and way way less government employees. for example, question to those of you who work/worked in the private sector. Who in the private sector got a check at the end of each year for sick days they did not use? Or even better, how about a huge check prior to retirement for all the sick/personal/vacation days you "did not" use during your total years as federal, state and local goverment employees do and this is unfortunitly just one of many seriously sad but true examples of how we are headed for a Europeon type crisis.
PLEASE, someone in the gov tell me why you get a check for unused sick days when nobody in the private sector paying your salary does.
