People will come, Ray. They'll come to Iowa for reasons they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive at your door as innocent as children, longing for the past. "Of course, we won't mind if you look around", you'll say. "It's only $20 per person". They'll pass over the money without even thinking about it, for it is money they have and peace they lack. And they'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes. And they'll watch the game and it'll be as if they dipped themselves in magic waters. The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces.
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game; it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and that could be again. Oh…people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.

When he was a Texas cotton farmer he utilized subsidies to stay in business
He proceeded to fight for farm subsidies - which is what got him elected to office some 25 years ago
Now he removes subsidies - the very same ones he used
Classic Republican behavior

Yes, just like Newton invented the Law of Gravity. Try and keep up.Skjellyfetti wrote:Steve Job's LITERALLY invented Say's Law?
Intriguing.
So 83k in farm 'subsidies' over 12 years of tax returns 87'-98'. That's less than 7k a year. Probably available and being taken by every other farmer, so Perry would have been stupid not to take them. Doesn't make him a hypocrite for wanting to get rid of them.Skjellyfetti wrote:https://www.texastribune.org/2011/08/29 ... ts-mantra/
