Would there be ethanol in Iowa without the subsidies and would there be a market for it? Would there be oil in Texas without the subsidies and would there be a market for it? I don’t know if she has the slightest idea what she’s talking about, but her parallelisms are childish.
Since you are ironically posting the same illogical argument a second time, I’ll post my logical response again:
I’m not sure you are being logical. Whether or not those things would exist without subsidies is not the point. The point is that if Cruz’s is a real conservative, as he likes to say, he will stand against ALL subsidies-even oil.
The point is that you can not pull the rug out from under an entire state all at once and you gain nothing but enemies by suggesting it.
All subsidies can and should be eliminated, but not all at once and not all at the same time.
