I mean you can say "bullshit" all you want but the fact is you do get subsidized. I don't know if you are a billionaire or not but those nice highways you get to drive on were not paid by you and probably could not be paid for by you, if I assume you're not some kind of trillionaire. Honestly, that's just one of a myriad of things; I couldn't name them all.
My argument sophistry. It is recognition of reality. Whatever pays your bills is probably partly possible because of subsidies. It's just reality. And if not you, specifically, since you aren't a special snowflake and the world exists for reasons beyond your existence, it is certainly the case that many people are wealthy because subsidies.
Many people are not living in rural areas because of that sort of choice; many people live their because they feel like they don't have good options.
Honestly, you're whole point is a bit silly to me anyway. The issue with the USPS is this ridiculous pension requirement that is being thrusted upon them by the same political party that brought us the Iraq war, how was that for corporate subsidies?
>I mean you can say "bullshit" all you want but the fact is you do get subsidized.
How can this make sense to you. If I pay a dollar in taxes and get $0.80 in services, does that sound like a subsidy to you? On my planet that's not a subsidy.
>Many people are not living in rural areas because of that sort of choice; many people live their because they feel like they don't have good options.
I'm not really interested in their feelings.

You may have noticed the Democrats ran Congress from 2006 to 2010.

I claim you are getting more subsidies than you believe.
> You may have noticed the Democrats ran Congress from 2006 to 2010.
You may have noticed that there is something called a requirement for a super majority such that and you might also recall that the other parties stated agenda, see Mitch McConnell, was to block all legislation. So, I don't see how this is the case.
>I claim you are getting more subsidies than you believe.
That's an interesting claim. Completely without merit, but interesting.
>You may have noticed that there is something called a requirement for a super majority such that and you might also recall that the other parties stated agenda, see Mitch McConnell, was to block all legislation.
There's no supermajority for the budget. And no, the Republicans do not have a state agenda to block all legislation. I imagine whatever comment you're referring to was taken out of context, but even if it wasn't Mitch McConnell doesn't have the power to make that stick.
