Just what we need. Another welfare farmer.
all they care about is getting their hooks in you and you have to allow inspections and they tell you exactly what they want done and how to spend the tax payers money. NO THANK YOU.
Hey, as much money as I pay in taxes every year, I'll take anything they're willing to give me. Especially since they think SS will be bankrupt by the time I'm old enough to get it. They stole it from me the first time and then they stole it out of the account they were supposed to pay it back from..... Yeah.... give me some of that welfare.
Kenmac, you might check out the extension service web site in your state. I think their primary focus is supporting farmers and helping people get started in farming. Alabama & Georgia's web sites both have a TON of information about getting going, growing, selling, etc.... Agriculture: Business Management | Alabama Cooperative Extension System - ACES.edu I've thought about having a state forester come out to my place for free to give me advice on my trees, but I have to admit, I'm a little leery of what their recommendations would be. As M5farms said, once they get their hooks in you..... I wouldn't say I'm paranoid, but the last thing I need is the govt to come out here and say, oh you can't cut these, or you're going to have to spray that, etc.... once you show up on the radar, you know? I'm still on the fence. Anyway, the web sites have a lot of good information and you could check out pretty much any one in your region and they'll have info pertaining to you.
I just try to think of it as Charity. I agree with the premise of its my money but personal standards and integrity weigh heavy on me. When its all over I want my kids and grandkids to know that doing everything on your own and not being dependent on anyone is a trait not many posses in today's gimme world. That's why our country in in the mess it is in.
Like you say, It's your money.. Are you going to turn down that SS check ?
You know, It does come from the government
The illegals have no issues spending your government check
I would be happy if I could forgo everything I have ever paid and never pay in another dime as the program was designed to be voluntary. I do not plan on there being any money available in 15yrs when I am 65 . At that point I will evaluate where I am and the total I have paid in and make a decision from there.
all very true, Some greedy bastard will have their hand out for something that is not theirs. that Does not make it right . If more people stood up to the wrongs that have been placed on us things would change but that would mean they don't get free stuff.
