So you don't mind there are government handouts because of policies that a government implemented?

Is that what they mean by conservative fiscal policies?

Corporate welfare is OK.
Farmers EXTRA welfare is OK.

Just not the single Mom with 3 small children. Take her food stamps away.

She could get a better job and leave the 3 small children at the public library.

FDR is dead. Stop blaming everyone but the current leader of the free world.

FDR created lots of them. Social Security, HUD, Fair Employment, Farmer support.

Are you saying they are all handouts and should be abolished?

Yes or No will suffice.

It's his program we are talking about, not Trumps. But I get why it really upsets you.

FDR?

That's a sorry attempt at deflection.

Ask your supervisors for better material.

Is this $6 billion in addition to the $12 billion in farm subsidies previously discussed for soybean farmers, etc.?

Or instead of the the $12 billion?
