    Hundreds of struggling Arkansas farmers are pleading with the federal government to provide emergency funding amid a farm economy crisis

    … many facing bankruptcy

    …where most farmers in Arkansas, Delta, lost money


    Emphasis added. There are more examples, I didn’t want to repost the whole article. I brought up money because it’s sort of a major driving factor and the specific thing that they are asking for.

        I’m not sure where you’re going or, to an extent, how you got there. What do you think I was talking about before with the possibility of blue states bailing out red ones (as per tradition)?

        That’s the “survive and provide for their families” money, where are you seeing “money for greed” coming into play?
