Tens of millions of people — and millions of acres of farmland — rely on the Colorado River’s water. But as its supply shrinks, these farmers get more water from the river than entire states.
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.
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.
Nothing in my opinion.

“I got mine, fuck you” is a pretty typical Republican attitude.

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!”

No thanks, buddy. You can keep it all to yourself.
🤭 chuckle-worthy, how lame and low energy your responses and explanations are.
Poor people?

No, I’m pretty sure that’s who commits most of the violent crime.
