You don't even know what my views are on most issues that would matter to a progressive like yourself. How many Minnesotan's would vote to give you a free ride? Minnesotan's aren't that stupid.
Just as a point of reference, the most subsidized segment in the US is the business community. Farmers get crops subsidies and tax abatements, companies get sweetheart deals to locate in communities, and all corporate entities, including LLCs, get preferred tax treatment -- to name just a few of the benefits that accrue.
The free ride is hardly aimed at the bottom or even the middle.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
