It seems that any time someone feels the need to express his dislike for something, be it beans in chili or ice in whiskey, it is important to point out that the object of interest (to Scovillize it) receives a subsidy. It would be interesting to see a complete list of everything that receives a federal subsidy. I imagine that there would be some surprises. (Of course, it would still remain that the things riding on one's ox would be entirely justified in receiving same, while those things not approved of would not.)

There are more than you can think of. More than 1800 of them. Here is a sample:

And here are some individual companies that receive subsidies:

Thanks, Dion. I wonder how many people who would decry subsidy for one entity on the list are invested in another entity on the list.
