>>Since tomatoes from Virginia and points south sell at the supermarket here at a steep discount during harvest season, I estimate my $40 plus investment produced maybe $10 in tomatoes, not counting my time and care. So the libtards should give me a subsidy or a tax refund. Do you think they will? <<
You should have registered as a farm. Then, yes, the government would pay you for not growing.
The government micromanagement of farms in the USA are from 2 centuries ago.

So how you end up focusing on eggs is laughable. Maybe they should concentrate on the corruption, I hear it is out of control in Romania. I’m sure there’s a lot of waste.

I suspect, like all control freaks, they focus upon the minority, polarize to progress....the old “They came for, but I wasn’t”.
Next, they’ll be taxing the rain runoff (ala Maryland)...I shouldn’t give ‘em any ideas.
Didn’t they answer that question on Christmas Day, 1989?
Quadruple the tax on chicken feed.
Problem solved.

HA!
It’s Wickard v Filburn all over again.
Maybe Kramerica Industries was onto something, if they could have just gotten that chicken.
So brilliant, so true.
And cooking your own food. Treason! No restaurant to tax -— you’re robbing the gubmint!
Too inefficient. Just tax the mothers directly for the economic value of the childcare they are providing to their children. After all, any good liberal knows that the child belongs to society, and not the parents.
The philosopher that the left follows today said "Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community." That is what the left in America believes.
Clearly, Romania needs to put a stake in the heart of yet more communist vampires.
The USA is unique in the world in our view that government power is delegated from the people.
Every other country in the world has its people conditioned to believe in the divine right of government to rule their lives from cradle to the grave.
The sad fact of too many Romanians is that they miss the comfort of having someone else make all of their important decisions for them and if Ceaucescu were to rise from the dead they’d happily bare their throats to let the communist vampire suck them dry.
See, some people were born to be slaves.
Now if a government employee went farm to farm breaking half of those eggs, the economy would be great.
Hey, while I think of it, he could break a few windows too.
Any time we do anything for ourselves, instead of paying someone else to do it, we’re depriving the government of a taxable transaction.
Personally, I feel terrible about it.
Monsieur Bastiat ?
You should.
Subversive!
Anarchist!
Hippie!
