Farmers are not poor ad they shouldn't be.

The database tracks $240 billion in farm subsidies from commodity, crop insurance, and disaster programs and $37 billion in conservation payments paid between 1995 and 2011.

Is this one of the handouts you think should be cut, as it's not going to the poor?

Minorities - They make up 30% of the population, yet over 90% will vote democrat.

What's a minority in the US?

People who can trace their US lineage back to the 1700-1800s of people whose forefathers came over on a boat during the 1990S

Or just poor people?
