Oh HELL no.

The main reason we subsidize US ag is to keep prices stable for the consumer. (Besides inflation) if one year there was a bumper crop of corn, price of corn would drop and the next year less farmers would plant corn leading to a shortage in the third year. One year, a corn food product would sell for a $1.00 next year 25 cents and third year $5

It also helps farmers who suffer a bad crop year or two.

And now you realize the pitfalls of making it up as you go.  It announces to everyone what a complete fool you are.

If  hydrogen was viable car companies would be pushing for it. They are not.  It is as simple as that.

Oh HELL no.

Now now, let's think about this one for a moment.  What if we subsidize the firearms industry.  Everyone in America should be able to have an AR-15 at low cost.  So the government should pay out huge subsidies to make that happen.  Other countries do it, right?  We should take the lead from China and France.

You just affirmed @DB 's assertion by justifying it.  In other words, logic isn't your strong point.  Far from it.

Hydrogen only half as efficient has Ev's.   Toyota looked at the hydrogen model, even created a few but dropped plans. Toyota is coming out with 6 new ev;s in 2026. If hydrogen was viable car co;s would be pushing for them. They are not.

As leftist idiot keep pushing battery subsidies in the US, Toyota is selling these cars starting at $50K.

They use hydrogen as a battery.

And now you realize the pitfalls of making it up as you go.  It announces to everyone what a complete fool you are.

The Toyota Mirai costs less than it's battery counterpart.  Yet you support subsidizing the more expensive model even though it is heavier, costlier, more detrimental to the environment, and higher maintenance.  Care to try again?

Serious...Nonconfrontational College Students?  That is a double oxymoron.

Their ranks may be thinner than that of today's average college students, but they're the ones who will assume the reins of power in the blink of an eye ---- making it all the more important to address their opinions and concerns now.
