Even today, many people heat with wood. Just how exactly has the Federal government ever subsidized that?

Free axes, coupons for free chainsaws, anything, ever?

I can't speak for the Feds, but here they do it by making wood burning illegal...

By not charging me a Cord Wood Tax or a Chimney Emissions Fee?

I base calling that a subsidy on the same governmental logic as requiring tax cuts to be "paid for".
