Republican members of the Tea Party caucus in Congress that campaigned on cutting the amount of money spent by the government, also collected over $8 Million dollars in "farm subsidies".

1. "tied to the Tea Party" - there are no members of the Tea Party in Congress

they are Republicans

That first guy was looking all over for an excuse to cut from the questioning.

2. Your friendly free enterprise philosophy at work.

And that is in addition to tax cuts.

Two-faced, greedy . . . .

3. The reason they don't see this as a problem is that they think in hierarchies of the good/worthy and

the not-good/not-worthy. You don't get an agricultural subsidy because you don't deserve one; they get them because they are better than the rest of us so they DO deserve them. That's the reasoning and that's why they see no problem with this form of SOCIALISM.

4. Leave 'em alone. They just wanna cut the waste - like

payments to the unemployed and those fatcat teachers.
