[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1558564, member: 37967"] I ABSOLUTELY AGREE with all you said above. Here in my county, people LOVE these programs, I've heard this comment before "yeah, go get some funds for waterers and fence, it's free money!", and from what I can tell, there also is some favoritism in who actually gets the funds. It's cliquish, almost like a private club. We have never used these "improvement" funds, because I figured that what you said above is a common scenario. That, and it requires your gate to be unlocked and free access to guys in state trucks driving around your property. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that once you accept government funds, that you have made a deal with the devil in some sense of the phrase. I've known a couple of people as well, one a producer here with over 1000 head of cattle, that was not too pleased after taking the funds for a hoop barn, and wished they had never made the move.
