Yea your right. Farmers are welfare scumbags. I think I'll tell the farmers
in my family to stop working seven days a week because their bringing down
America.


Boo hoo! We, the American taxpayers will all cry you a river. Some do
work seven days a week part of the year, planting and harvest season.
Not all winter though or large chunks of other months. Many
self-employed people work seven days a week year round and they don't
receive any handouts from the taxpayers. Wouldn't my neighbor, who is
an IT consultant, love to have the government hand him $300,000 (see
Fox news story about Mr. North Dakota farmer) because his business is
being taken away by consultants in India! Difference between him and
the American farmer is that he doesn't expect the taxpayers to bail
him out of his chosen profession. Nor does he whine, cry and bellyache
about it (which further distinguishes him from the typical farmer).
You are correct on one point though; "Farmers are welfare scumbags."
Your words not mine.
