.. But I have the feeling you dont care to understand my point. I dont believe keeping the fed out of your life or your business is a left or right pov. Its just how I was raised. And its been my experience. Privately, in government and later in business. Your opinion may vary.
In my case it became personal decades ago. Government entity gets grant, government entity takes entire street (and childhood home where my widowed mother lived) via eminent domain. Buying the houses cost exponentially more than they planned because people got lawyers. Future funding dries up, project never comes to fruition. School gone, (had to replaced at tax payer expense as they didnt get lawyers). Community destroyed, lives upended. Land ends up being rezoned commercial and sold to developers for business. Its now fast food type sit down restaurants. Yay grants
. And just because a grant becomes available under one administration doesnt mean it will continue under the next. As the video points out. Which leads me back to my original post
I dont have feelings one way of the other regarding people that choose to get grants
.Best to get your money up front.
