[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 219722, member: 704"] If you go into McDonalds and hand them a $10 are there strings attached? Do they just give you what's left over, or do you get to tell them what you want? Same with the farm bill. If A through M get taxed and the government is going to give millions to N do we get to tell our representatives what we want out of those tax dollars? Does the government just give it to N and he decides what he is going to do? I don't care if those organizations go for tax dollars, but I am not ok if they stop listening to their members. Tax dollars are a pile of money and A through M have as much right to it as N. Even those organizations we don't like have as much right to it as anyone else if they write an acceptable proposal of what they will do with the money. When the government gets their hands on the money it belongs to all the people. I wish the people paying in could determine how it's used. There are a lot of people saying "I don't want my tax dollars used that way" when they have not paid a red cent. [/QUOTE]
