[QUOTE="Cattleman200, post: 996779, member: 951"] I can only remember taking any kind of Govt. help once and it was after a drought year back before they implemented a program that now we have to buy insurance if we want to collect on losses. I think they paid $26 per cow owned which didnt even put a dent in the expenses I had, not that it matters. In my opionon one major difference would be that people receiving this money are working and most are working a full time job and farming or raising cattle on the side. When they get money on a hay barn they will buy fertilizer for the hay, fuel for the tractor, equipment and upkeep, baler twine or wrap etc. Hence, putting tax money back into the economy. I have no problem with people that need welfare getting welfare. The problem in that program is that there are 47 million some odd people collecting on it. I would have no problem estimating that at least one third or more of them are as able or more able to work than I am but their too lazy to do it. Circle H Ranch [/QUOTE]
