Small business loans should be private sector, not gov. Veteran assistance should be nominally functioning like a pension accrued during service, so would be in essence an insurance scheme, so could be allowed as it is money paid in coming out. Farming subsidy could be achieved better by tariffing foreign imports, it's a defacto subsidy, but costs none of us money. Grants from the government would be included. Student loans would, but only while taking, not after school when paying back.

I know it would get push back (ferocious pushback) but the fact remains all money coming from the government came from our pockets, and the money buys loyalty - it purchases the pushback.

The debate will never end... but I will still make the case that money should not be doled out to an electorate. Keep in mind also, people can take a little crisis-help and maybe that is well and good, and later, when they elect to stop receiving, then the franchise is returned to them, so its only temporary, or should be. If nothing changes but you get free money, you will just vote to keep the money and the degeneration of humanity is the result.
