We need to reduce federal spending

National Institute of Food and Agriculture grant (2024)

  • Amount: $749,509
  • Recipient: Renewing The Countryside II
  • Purpose: The Farmland Access Hub (FAH), in its seventh year, has the long-term goal of getting more BFRs secure and affordable access to farmland that enables them to grow profitable, climate-smart, environmentally sustainable farm businesses. We envision a multitude of thriving, diverse, small and mid-size farms supporting generations of farmers and their rural (and urban) communities across the upper Midwest. We are working to increase racial and ethnic equity in land access while also reversing persistent patterns of land loss and rural decline. Our approach is multi-pronged: 1) direct service to BFRs (workshops, online courses, and one-on-one assistance from navigators and specialists); 2) catalyzing changes that improve conditions which make it easier for BFRs to gain secure and affordable access to farmland; and 3) building strong connectivity between partners and programs serving BFRs to leverage our impacts. With this funding we will deepen the work of the fah and refine the structure of the navigator program to have greater impacts for BFRs. By adding link navigators, providing advanced training to navigator guides, improving our intake process, and restructuring how we match navigators and specialists to BFRs, we will be able to provide BFRs with the best-tailored support to assist them on their journey.

Two solutions to the debt, We refuse to fix the one that caused it. Our cutting taxes on the wealthy and corporations have created an obscene concentration of wealth in America. We lack revenue. Tax them and it will get better quickly and steadily.


If you confiscated 100% of the wealth of every billionaire and millionaire in the USA, how much would the government get?
 
I’m guessing either the “examiner” or “breitfart,” then again, resembles a tweet, so it could be some fat kid living in his mother’s basement in Jersey
That is actually from the U.S. government itself. In his first post. The link. You see dumbfuck democrat, your democrat elected officials never tried to hide it. They just knew the people that voted for them were too fucking stupid to look it up. Hence folks like you.
 
The Treasury Department maintains a “Do Not Pay (DNP) list” that agencies are supposed to check before sending out $$$.

DNP screens for deaths, delinquent federal debts, & excluded contractors.

But it doesn’t really work that way: for example, the Small Business Administration granted over 100,000 forgivable loans to individuals who were on the DNP list, resulting in $5.3 billion of payments to recipients who may have been ineligible for federal support.

The SBA’s Inspector General recognized this & recommended the agency stop this, but the agency’s current leadership rejected the proposal.

This kind of flagrant waste needs to end.

They also find bad loans after a crisis is averted and collect the money.
 
I don't think the US taxpayer should pay for the employment of a "Director of Climate Diversification (she/her)" at the US International Development Finance Corporation.
