Are farmers going to be on welfare for all 4 years of this Trump term, or just for 3 years like the first Trump term?
We get you like voting for government handouts, but we are $38 trillion in debt.

👇🎯 Reporting large nominal numbers without relevant denominators is journalistic malpractice.
I really would like to hear a non-nefarious reason why reporters at places like the NYT, WaPo, or NPR can't take 10 second to tell us that the $100 billion we spend on SNAP is 1.3% of the budget or the $6 billion that went to the AIDS program in Africa was 0.9% of the budget. Love to hear a reason.
seriously, can anyone give me a reason why reporters refuse to express huge budget numbers, that they know are meaningless to their audience, in a context that makes them understandable -- such as a percentage of the budget? I NEVER get an answer to this question.

I understand those sharing that their grandparents migrated here with very little & the children and grandchildren ended up doing highly valued jobs. I also hope we don't just value one another according to income or job. There are so many other ways people contribute to society and communities.

It's not "free-market conservatism" when Trump uses government power to sabotage farmers' markets and then spends taxpayer money to bail them out, making them more dependent on the government. It's what dictators want: everyone dependent on their personal whims.
