The Government Accountability Office (GAO) identified several individuals receiving farm payments “whose professions had nothing to do with farming or agricultur[e],” says the report.
These individuals include real-estate developer Maurice Wilder, a “part-owner of a professional sports franchise [who] received total of more than $200,000 in farm program payments in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006.”

when you spend too much,” Sanford said, adding that
government overspending threatens democracy. “And I think
it’s a moral issue, because it’s the ultimate case of taxation
without representation when you have systematically at a government level basically taking from young to afford benefits to old". 11 House members (or their spouses) and four senators (or their spouses) received $237,921 in taxpayer-funded farm subsidy Welfare payments in 2012."Crop insurance compensates for these lawmakers and wealthy farmers and farming companies for crop failure or damage. Uncle Sam foots 62 cents out of every dollar a farm spends on crop insurance. This does two things: It encourages farmers to take unnecessary risks, and it costs taxpayers a gawd awful lot. Merely cutting Uncle Sam’s share to 52 cents on the dollar would save more than $1 billion a year."Sanford said government overspending would have
“incredible implications in terms of the American way of life
and the dreams that it has historically afforded unless we get
principles of limited government and individual responsibility.The congressman expresses skepticism about such safety-net programs as food stamps, regarding them as the handiwork of an "oppressive" government that snatches wages from the hands of working people. Helping the poor is better left to individuals and churches, he said at a recent committee hearing in Washington, because then "it comes from the heart, not from a badge or from a mandate."As a rice farmer from California's fertile Central Valley, however, this same Doug LaMalfa has done pretty well by the "oppressive" federal government. From 1995 through 2012, according to USDA figures compiled by the Washington-based Environmental Working Group, the farm he co-owns with other family members has collected $5.1 million in government crop subsidies.
raditional farm and conservation programs limit the amount of money an individual or business can receive from the government, EWG notes there are no such limits on crop insurance subsidies.
