I do know that I receive no money from the taxpayers tho
Ever gotten a property tax refund, income tax refund, been enrolled in any sort of health insurance program in the last decade, I could go on ….. Everyone gets money directly or indirectly from the taxpayers somehow.

Nope no property tax refund. I get maybe 5% back of the taxes I pay in. I pay for my insurance

I think there is a thread about sharpening axes on here. Sounds like you have one to grind.
Haha. You guys just stay on the Billg fan club. He's the one who stuck his nose in this

Take a look back at my post to bill about something he said. I called him out on it politely and we cleared the air. I am not a "fan" of anyone. You would get more mileage out of addressing your problem with someone without all the barbs. Do what you want, I have no stake in this. Just want people to be civil. You are on the edge.

Being a taxpayer yourself you are getting taxpayer money back.

I also “pay for my insurance” but am smart enough to get some of it subsidized so I don’t have to foot the entire bill.

Must be nice to make too much money to qualify for a subsidized plan. <- that’s a barb that didn’t need to be in there but I thought why not. I’m assuming you make piles of money so you don’t need to take the time to do the work to see what sort of assistance is out there. I have no idea who you are or what you do but we can all make whatever uneducated guesses we want in the internet hiding behind a screen as long as it may further our own point.

I don’t see many of your “fan club” members defending you. Bill G is a decent dude. Throwing online punches and being all cocky doesn’t make friends.

Any thoughts on the YouTube homesteader part of this thread or are you just here to lob grenades at Bill G ?

Nope. All I said was that it looked like illinois farmers were doing very good. Bill was the one that took offense to it. I'm not looking for fans on here. Just come here to learn.

Of course they do but some are just too bullheaded to see that. When my son plows snow for the township and they give him a check I guess some call that welfare.

God forbid anyone calls 911 for police, fire, or ambulance as that would be welfare.

Tim....I don't think you like Bill very much, and that's just fine, but we ain't really into this sort of thing here. That's over on Arboristsite....which is where you most likely began to dislike Bill. Let's do a reset, and move on please.

The funny thing is I have no idea who he is.

I have a few head of cattle, and cut hay on a bit of land. Once in a while we get paid some "welfare" if there's a drought, or something of that nature. We can also get help with cost sharing on barns, fencing, bulls, etc. To qualify for these programs you have to attend a few hours of classes, and must have filed actual farm tax forms showing your profit, or losses. For the drought program you pay a yearly fee....like insurance. In my humble opinion, helping us small farmers out is a hell of a better use of tax dollars than giving another tax cut to some billionaires who don't need it....

I've never been on arboristsite. This all started when I said Illinois farmers were doing well and he got mad. If that makes me an ahole then so be it. I know what I see

And for clarification I said big farming. Not the small family farms that are getting wiped out. I've been around farming my whole life
