I'd gladly do it too if it was free, but it ain't free. Sitting on your butt and taking a hand out when you're capable of working is like stealing to me. I'd be stealing from my fellow taxpaying Americans and stealing from the less fortunate that actually do need the assistance. That's just my opini...

The federal government already spends millions of dollars every year on these types of projects. The programs to address these problems are already in place, but they're all volunteer. I don't think private landowners will accept big brother just coming in and taking their land from them. This theor...

BTW JaMak84 you can lump me into the category that would rather sit on my hands and receive a check for nothing as opposed to work...I will gladly take money for free, I choose not too as I have grown accustomed to my standards of living and choose to work so as to support it. However the minute th...

Let me rephrase that. Subsidies will never be removed, because like you said, the cost offset to the consumer will be too high for the majority of the population to pay. Right now farmers receive subsidies based off of base acre system that was set back in the seventies. This system is dependant on ...

You hit the nail on the head there po monkey. Unfortunately with the way the welfare system is set up most of the Delta population would rather sit on their hands and receive a check for nothing than to work for one. 65 percent of funding provided by the farm bill is directly related to welfare. Tha...

Now for the rest of the story...... Mr. Morris sweet potatoes are subsidized at 2000 an acre. White people can't get a subsidy for growing alternative crops only minorities. What Mr. Morris doesn't tell is that he and five others formed a co-op and had a contract with Wal-mart for all the sweet pot...

We need to keep this topic going as long as we can. Over the last year the States of MS, LA, and AR have lost a tremendous amount of funding for the WRP program. The funding to these states has been cut do to nothing put political jealousy. The eastern states and California raised a big ruckus about...

Best shot I ever made was a complete accident. Couple years ago I was walking a block of cutover in Holmes County and spooked two does. They came to a halt about 200 yds out, and since I never get to make long shots at home I figured what the heck. My first shot missed and they took off up a ridge, ...

Holly Crap!! You got me on the price thing Super Black. It's been a long time since I priced a new one. Most of em run anywhere from $800 to $1200. I'll gladly eat crow on the remark about those other " high dollar" guns. As far as gun envy goes, I can miss just as many birds with a Benell...

The first thing I have to ask you is why you've decided to break the bank on a gun. If you're looking for a nice show piece or something to show off to your buddies, then you’re on the right track. If you’re looking for a "duck gun" then your way off base. I bought a Remington 1187 abo...

If you have a duck hole you're leasing or a place where you're allowed to do some management, this is prime time to be doing some disking. The top three natural food sources for waterfowl are barnyard grass, sprangletop, and annual smartweed (pink blooms). When those foods are gone, ducks will utili...
