Joni Ernst - Her Family is addicted to handouts

Post by dbackjon »

So new GOP Senator Joni Ernst hates welfare - for anyone other than her and her family.

She wants to slash medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, etc, but don't touch her farm welfare


Sen. Joni Ernst’s family actually received more than $460,000 in federal subsidies

Despite Sen. Joni Ernst’s (R-IA) rhetoric about growing up poor on Tuesday night, her family actually received hundreds of thousands of dollars in government aid between 1995 and 2009, the District Sentinel news co-op reported.

Farm subsidy records indicate that the freshman senator’s father, Richard Culver, has received $38,395 in commodity subsidies and conservation payments, with all but $12 of the money being used for support of his corn crops. Ernst’s uncle, Dallas Culver, has reportedly received $250,000 in federal corn subsidies and $117,141 in additional aid. And her paternal grandfather, Harold Culver, got an additional $57,479 in aid between 1995 and 2001.

She "grew up poor" in the 70's. How much farm subsidies did her family collect in that 15 year window?

There are a lot of crappy people that enlisted in the armed forces. Doesn't mean anything.


Anyway, what did she do, serve sammies?

Logistics. Yup, sammie server.

Since she was away from home and serving in the military when her family started receiving the subsidies, please tell me how. Better yet, prove it.
