At a time when we are trying to develop alternative energies to help curb our oil obsessions, we are paying farmers who could farm 40 million acres not to farm. Outrageous!

For a great eye-opener of “RICH” federal welfare recipients ,---That is--, land owners paid not to grow crops and livestock around stilwell.
Graft, corruption, but legal?

Go to www.ewg.org/farm/
Go to bottom of page
Enter 74960
Click—See Recipients
Click on names for, more info and browse the website. www.ewg.org .

Heading should be—Sit on butt and receive money from government.
Just how much wheat was ever grown in Adair County?

316 posts on a dead mangy dog and the gut-less, ball-less stilwellites are too fraidy to comment on their rich neighbors who accept thousands of dollars of direct payment from the federal government for sitting on their duff and doing nothing. The same gut-less people will have a hissy-fit if they think someone gets food stamps, government cheese or a few dollars to feed their children.

How come no comments about the preachers, bankers, sheriffs, county commisioners, and other fat cats?
Where are you criminalville, jenking, and other who like to spout off?

Are you the "FAT CATS?"
At least defend the practice.

Hoovie, is this where you got your 23 cents?

If you look at the map, stilvell has very few fat cats. However I agree this is just legal thievery since the so-called farmers are paid to do nothing. Anybody know just how many of these fat cats go to church on sunday to clear their sins

Why are farm subsidies so high & why do they go to wealthy people who may not or probably don't farm - as in the Texas LDP program.
If all subsidies for farms went to working small farms I wouldn't care but that is not the case & if even 1 billion of these subsidies was diverted to food stamps & food banks - hunger in the USA could be ended in a year or two. And another amount should be diverted to medicare & other medical needs for our population. Why isn't it? Why is our government always talking about medical expenses being out of control & not a word about farm subsidies. Its disgusting.

Trust me I have never spoke ill of anyone who gets food stamps, welfare or any assistance to help their family. There but for the grace of God go I; I read the EWG sight a few years back and was very surprized at some of the names on there. You are correct a lot of those people would criticize a single mom for taking food stamps. I don't. I have made jokes about white people being envious of Indians receiving cheese, but I was just being sarcastic. Some of the names on the ewg list also had people who worked for them also sign up and receive a subsidy. I thought that was kind of strange that they let people do that.

Where is the outrage about corporate welfare?

People bitch about the disabled and the DPS welfare in adair county, but when the rich get money from state or federal government, heads are just turned the other way. Talk about a nation of sheep..

Just how long can it stand?

This is just a little with what's wrong with our political system, Adair county and these folks in general! Just look we have felons, lawyer which helps felons, druggies, preachers and just down right low lifes. Oh yes, a millionaire that doesn't need it anyway. Waht a drain and they don't feel a bit guilty about it! Maybe when we see these people listed here we ought to tell them how sorry they are.

U DO NOT tell an uppercrust in stilvell how sorry they are unless U want want to be found in a ditch with out your soul...U could, as I have done, bitch and moan to your fed representative and fed senator, which will do no good. All are republicians who are for the rich. If colburn and inhole thought anything about the masses in oklahoma, then this fat cat law would be no more and they would not be bitching about health care reform and do something about it. But it is all about the rich bustard and always willbe about the rich bustard.

I was kind of impressed by the figures until I realized that they were the total amount received over a ten year period.Up until I read that I was considering doing some farming on the side.lol.It seems to me that none of them are really receiving that much on an annual basis except for Terry Hall.

Daily Horoscope for December 24

Aries

You're in a rather sentimental mood, so if you've got time you'll relish the chance to watch a favourite film, especially if it means you've got to get out the hankies. A friend's kindness or sensitivity will delight you - and make you wonder how you can reciprocate.
