Department of Agriculture percent of the federal budget is about one half of one percent.
You obsess about .5 percent of the budget, I worry much more about Social Security and Medicare. I don’t know how old you are but are you planning to get Social Security and use Medicare?
It's the thin edge of the wedge. People point to government handouts to justify more handouts. That's how we've gone from a federal government that spent 2.5 percent of GDP to spending 25 percent of GDP in 100 years. It's always the same argument. If you slice the budget salami thin enough you always have to argue against spending "only 1/2 of one percent of the budget".
I don’t know how old you are but are you planning to get Social Security and use Medicare?
No. Absolutely not. If I did that, if I took so much as a nickel from the government, how could I possibly answer to people who promote these idiot programs that require us to burn food? They would call me a hypocrite.
