Not for cars in California.
And yes people like you are forcing me.
This might not be a left wing forum, but yours is surely a left-wing post. Millions and millions of small businesses in all kinds of fields out there don’t receive tax breaks. And very few industries receive outright tax subsidies, governmental price fixing, and the like.
Farmers should keep the money they earn in the free market—other than the taxes that they, like all Americans, have to pay.
Being against government subsidies and price supports is in no imaginable way a an attack against private enterprise.
For those who want to put ethanol in their gas tanks: knock yourselves (and your engines) out. Just donât force the rest of us to do so, and to pay for the âbenefitâ.””
No one is forcing you. Prove me wrong. Cars last far longer and get better MPG then ever. Why are you making up facts. This is not move on.org
I was simply saying that I don’t think you’ll find my ox gets gored by cutting federal spending... Cut baby cut...
No reason to take God’s name in vain, no matter the cause.
Government subsidies pick winner’s and losers. The government has no business doing that.
My local Kroger has milk for $2.19/gal, peanut butter for $1.50/lb, chicken at $.87/lb, 6 poacks of 16.9 oz pepsi and coke products for $2.00, ham for $1.79, and typically has beef roasts for around $2.60 /lb if you buy one and get one free; a loaf of kroger bread is like $.89. good multigrain bread is %$2.00/loaf. I could go on. I am not seeing any kind of food inflation in Toledo, Ohio.
What does the latest electronic gadget cost now? Which is of more value? What was milk when you were a kid? What does govern,net cost now?
“Prices need to be supported?” What is a Soviet economist like you doing at FR?
And lower gas prices help the economy far more than they hurt it.
Wow. Look at allthe newly minted socialists on this thread.
on FreeRepublic no less
unfrigginbelievable.
Most reasonable Americans want US agriculture to be a winner.
Here we go, again. The subsidy one receives is based on acreage. The perversion is that it forces small farmers out of business.

Trump will get the trains running on time. Yes, it is unbelievable.
Brave new world, comrade.
You could have fooled me.
Have you been watching the stock market? This is but one of the many wonders of inflation.
If Trump would say... we need to punish the rich, and just spread the wealth around.
The Trump fans would say, hey that’s a great idea, poor people are struggling too much and life just isn’t fair.
Have you been watching the stock market? This is but one of the many wonders of deflation.
So millions of barrels from the Middle East enemies is very little. We built their industry and we buy this oil.
Second, who is forcing you to buy ethanol. Do you drink it too?
You are currently paying less per gallon than at anytime in history in terms of real dollars. What is cheap? Should you have gas for free, maybe food too?
Ever heard of a thing called technology?
It changes. Engines get better. Does ethanol make your computer last longer?
here’s a list of gas stations in California that don’t have ethanol, a state with more than 30 million people:

And yes people like you are forcing me.”
Just curious, what was you driving for a car in 1967?
