Another subsidy! This is why I am an Independent, because both of the major parties continue to violate their oath of office by committing "Legalized Plunder" -- Frederic Bastiat. Or, shall we call it legalized stealing? I would like to know how much money has gone into subsidizing various organizations and businesses at taxpayers expense.

"But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime" -- Frederic Bastiat
