It's the money. When Democrats and Republicans start agreeing on something, watch out. They are fighting for votes or money or both and doing both with your taxes.

What does Maurice Wilder multi billionaire Clearwater, Fl, David Letterman, Paul Allen Microsoft-co founder Scottie Pippen and U.S. Rep. Allen Boyd Dist. 2 Florida have in common? They all receive farm subsidies. Mr. Wilder received over 3 million 1995-2005, the most for an individual. Allen Boyd received close to a quarter of a million dollars 2003-2005. The Sentinel Editors stated, "Those lawmakers voted to perpetuate a system that directs the bulk of its subsidies to large farms, often corporate owned". It' 84 percent to the largest 20 percent of farmer and farm corps. The only ones getting a return from these federal farm subsidies and the 20 million in state grants for ethanol is the "Do Nothing Bill" Nelsons or the "Give'm Amnesty Mel" Martinezs or the "Cultivate the Taxes Allen" Boyds or Charlie Christ and the State Legislators who voted for these give aways. We put them in office we can put them out, but will we?

Farm subsidies are for weanies. Florida sugar cane subsidies are a crime.
