what i learned about research
what i learned about research is not easy finding reliable sources. The internet is full of information that's not valid. I had to search and check where i got my sources because i wanted the most up to date information. there are a lot of people who comment on subjects who are not experts, just opinions. what i noticed is most recent articles are up to date with current event ,so it make your paper creditable. the easy part of research is there tons of information available on any topic. the internet is a lot easier to use because all i had to do was look for the information. If i had to do a research paper 20 years ago i would have a hard time searching for information because i would have to read books in order to even understand my research. The most useful thing about research is you can learn about the topic with in an hour of reading. i didn't have to be a genius to figure out what the topic contained. I learn about federal subsidy within two months ago and i didn't know anything about it until i research it. the information we can obtain is literally in your hands. clicking was probably the hardest thing i had to do to find information.
final paper
Federal subsidies work in the favor for the rich and not the poor farmers. Federal subside policies are simply putting taxpayers money into greedy politician’s hands. The majority of farmer’s household income is well above average. Federal subside policies is a form of capitalism in the United States of America.
The United States hands out $10 billion to $30 billion dollars to farmers and farmland owners every year. Farmers who grow crop like corn, rice, cotton and wheat receive 90% of agriculture subsidies (Edwards, June 2009) Farm subsidies payments aren’t being equally distribute among all farms. Farms are not determined by income, it’s determined by crops. The other 400 domestic crops get nothing from the federal subsidies program.
Family farmers are getting 19% of farm subsidies, but share among 80% of farmers.
The federal subside payments are for farmers or farmland owners in the need of assistance, major disaster, and equipment. The word assistance is used very loosely because smaller farms aren’t being assisted. Smaller farms can’t complete in the same playing field against bigger farm owners. Smaller farms don’t have the modern practices of technology. Farms with more advanced technology have better machinery, faster techniques, and educated marketing consultants. Smaller farms can’t produce the same amount of crops quickly enough to gain an advance. The smaller farm owners are receiving federal subside payments, but the checks are barely helping small farms stay in business. Smaller farm owners are force to buy more land, it will cost farm owner around $4000 to $5000 dollars an acre. ‘’ If the purpose of farm policy was to save the family farm and help stabilize rural communities, then it hasn’t worked,’’ Oswald said. ‘’ What the government is really doing is subsidizing land and assets, and not people.’’(Gaul, December 2006)
Smaller farm owners end up owning more money than profiting for themselves. Smaller farms are being charged higher rent because farm owners know they can profit more money from federal subside payments.’’ As soon as they figured they could take the payments, they said I don’t need you anymore, he said. They were renting me land for $40 an acre, but they could get $125 an acre from the government.’’(Gaul, December 2006) Federal subside payments are for farmer who need financial assistance however you do not need to be a farmer. In order to receive federal subside payment you must own the land but don’t have to grow any crop on the land. If you are farm owner with ten acres or more you can qualify for payments from the government. The only stipulation to receiving the payments is leaving the 9 acres of farm land as is but can do what ever you want with acre of land. There are many people receiving thousand of dollars for just owning land. This money should be going to farmer in need of aid, who really grow crop in there backyard. ‘’n 2004, the property was sold to shin Shan Chu, an elderly investor who lives in Vancouver, Canada. Once a year, bailey, who still grows rice on part of the 4,000 acres, cuts a $25,000 dollar check and send it to chu, whom he has met.’’(Gaul, December 2006) Apparently checks are being given to people who never step foot on America soil but is receiving payments. It’s evident where these federal subsided payments are going to, but nothing is being done about it.
On average taxpayers waste $20,000 dollars per household on federal subsides. Instead of the money going to small farmers, it’s being given to larger farms, politicians, and celebrity. Taxpayer’s money is being given to the rich and not to the poor. Farmer’s income is much higher than the average households. The farmers income is broken is three barracks higher income, greater wealth and lower consumption expenditures. The higher income average for farm household is $64,437 dollars. The average income for non farm household is $54,842 dollars. For greater wealth income average for farm household is $563,563 dollars. The average income for non farm household is $88,000 dollars. The lower consumption expenditures income average for farm household is $25,073 dollars. The average income for non farm household is less than $11,000 dollars. (Riedl, May, 2004)
This chart show large farms with higher income received higher federal subside payments. These large farms are owned by multimillion dollar companies’ like John Hancock, mutual life insurance, and chevron. The members of the agriculture committee are even taking a piece of the pie. These members of the agriculture committee are the one who granted the farm subsidies law. Lawmaker are benefiting from the laws they created. Even celebrities like Scottie Pippen, Ted turner, and David Rockefeller gain trembles amount of money from this farm bill. The farm bill is helping the wrong type of people who already have millions of dollar. It’s quite frank the rich and famous are reaping the benefits. The family farmer and taxpayers are the ones who are paying dearly for this farm bill and nothing will be done about it. If the federal subside bill was used according to the way it was projected to be then taxpayers would save billions of dollars.
Instead farm subsidy is damaging the economy with long term affect. This debt bought upon the United States of America will destroy the value of our currency. The value of dollar is going to worth less. If the value of the dollar is worth less, it will cause inflation. The America people will end up paying more for services and goods to cover cost. The lower class and middle class will end up paying this heft fee. When the higher class just raises price or created a non sense bill to take all the money in the world.
In conclusion this is called capitalism at its best. The system is created to keep the rich on top and the poor in the bottom. Its crystal clear how the world works, money equals power.

Federal Subsidies demolishes little farm in the United State of America.
The smaller farms are simply being push out of the way because the modern practices of technology. Bigger farm have state of art computer, marketing consultants, and farmer who graduated from college. The smaller farms can’t completive in the same play field ,as the opponent next to them. The opponent has bigger machinery , fast techniques, and smarter people by their side. Since smaller farm can’t produced that the same rate there forced to buy more land or lose your land. If smaller farm decide to buy land, it will cost around $4000 to $5000 dollars an acre. That what I called capitalism that’s a total rip off for a acre of land. The government isn’t helping the situation either, there making things worst by handing huge checks to bigger farms. Smaller farms aren’t receiving enough federal aid to run there business. The smaller farms are getting less money due to the fact because they own enough land. ‘’If the purpose of farm policy was to save the family farm and help stabilize rural communities, then it hasn't worked," Oswald said.

The government prints are own money how can you completive with that.
Uncle Sam is handing out millions of dollars to farmers who don’t apparently have farms. To be a farmer you must own land ,but don’t have to grow any crops on your land. If you own ten acres or more farmer and build a house on one acre than you still receive payments from the government. People like Donald Matthews, Rene Hamman, and many more are receiving thousands of dollars for farm subsides. ‘’In 2004, the property was sold to Shin Shan Chu, an elderly investor who lives in Vancouver, Canada.

This money can go to the farmer in need of aid ,who really producing crop for his/her country instead they give to people who are getting wealth out it.
All I have to say this it sad what’s happening to small farms. Its happening right in front of our faces and nothing is being done about. The government is taking every nickel and dime the poor has to give. I don’t suggest it because one day there going to take it back and its not going to be pretty.

Revise paper
Revise paper
My paper needs more information and details to support the research. I had very good information about federal subsides, but I felt like I didn’t get deeper into the issues. I have to further extend my researcher, so I could have a complete researcher paper. I have to spend more time digging for information in the internet instead of being happy with less information. My researcher paper need to be more thought out and not rush through. The time and effort wasn’t put in correctly into this researcher paper. I have to be prepare to write a great researcher paper or I will end up with the same resulted. One of the most important things I forgot to do in writing is prove read everything. I also need a other person to revise my work because sometime I might not see the mistakes. I should have gotten help from my friend’s or simply gone to the writing center. My grammar is horrible because I’m rushing through the researcher paper and not taking my time. I should use a dictionary to correct my spelling. I notice a lot of preparation go into a researcher paper and I’m not putting the time to do it. My biggest issue is being patience writing a paper. I have to build up a strategy to take on this researcher paper, so I wouldn’t make the same mistake twice. I need to practices the correct way or I will build bad habits writing papers. I’m always trying to hard to be creative with my writing, instead of keeping it simple. One of the things I learned this semester is you telling us to be simple with your writing. You told us make sure your reader understand what is in front of them. I keep that in my mind at all times ,so I could become a better writer.

counter argument
government spending is actually used wisely according to the united state of america ,however farmers owning more then ten acres of land received thousands of dollar to sustain the land fertile ,so the land doesn't go to waste. If the owner has ten acres of farm he or she can use one acre of land for an apartment but the other nine acres of land has to be left alone. these farmers are receiving checks from the government just because of there location.

SUPER SIZE ME
''' super size me '''
i thought the movie was very interesting to see a health person gain ,so much weight just eating McDonald's. i couldn't eat McDonald for a month i would go insane. That crap might taste good the first couple of times ,but after a three days the food doesn't taste the same. i was really surprise with the doctor's said McDonald wouldn't effect you that much. the doctors really believe ,he was going to have minor health problem nothing to serious. that's shocking how his liver could have fail over a month worth of McDonald. i guess some people aren't make biologically to eat certain foods constantly. i know certain people who have the worst diet and live until 100 years old. The other people i know can't eat fast food all the time because they get sick quickly. i guessing it has to do with genes and your eating habits. IF you were eating fast food ,since you were kid i guess you builded a good Resistance to the food. its just like a cold if you got the cold a lot when you was a kid your chance are pretty huge that you can defeat that cold like nothing when your adult. you get immune to the food that you eat all your life because your body gets used to it. If a person who eats salad n vegetable all their life starts eating fast food , the consequence are obvious. ''too much of anything isn't good for you.'' people have to be responsible for their own being sometime people are simply being lazy and not taking care of them self. the people who do have a weight problem should just eat healthier don't depend on no government to tell you if this crap is health. the government only care about money and power not your family ,friends, and definitely not you. the government rare make a million dollars than see a healthier citizen. they want you to stuff your face with greasing unprocessed meat down your throat,so when get sick you have to go to the emergency room to get operator on. you spend thousands of dollar dogging down hamburgers ,now you need spend even more money on your health. where you think this money is going? not into your pocket.
