The “Milk Cliff” scares us as milk prices, supposedly, will skyrocket unless Farm Subsidies for privileged few producers are imposed . Farm Subsidies are, essentially, Republican ‘earmarks’ for their constituents.
James Bovard, in WSJ, lays out the problem. This is legislative dereliction of duty to the Forgotten Taxpayer, and the forgotten consumer, who is hammered with farm price subsidies. Will Republican Leadership sell us out again? Odds makers are giving odds they will. What do you think?
All tax cuts are not created equal; some are more equal than others in Obama’s State Capitalist word. To be accurate, though, it is a bipartisan Big Government State Capitalist Weltanschauung that infects the lawmakers in Washington and Harrisburg.
Billionaires benefit General Electric, inheritor of Enron’s wind energy program, German based Siemans, and, of course, Warren Buffet and his band of billionaire Big Government Socialists distributing wealth to themselves.
Wind subsidies, and other ‘renewable energy’ subsides, a bipartisan assault on The Forgotten Taxpayer, lobbyists swarm to save privileged tax cuts for billion dollar businesses while the rest of us taxpayers are Forgotten as the bipartisan Fiscal Cliff and Obamacare, an avalanche of new taxes, crushes the rank and file taxpayers, who is us.
Bipartisan, another word for Big Government Tax Increase.
Tim Carney of the Washington Examiners eloquently informs us here.
