The federal government spends more than $20 billion a year on subsidies for farm businesses. About 39 percent of the nation's 2.1 million farms receive subsidies, with the lion's share of the handouts going to the largest producers of corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, and rice.1
The government protects farmers against fluctuations in prices, revenues, and yields. It subsidizes their conservation efforts, insurance coverage, marketing, export sales, research, and other activities. Federal aid for crop farmers is deep and comprehensive.
However, agriculture is no riskier than many other industries, and it does not need an array of federal subsidies. Farm subsidies are costly to taxpayers, but they also harm the economy and the environment. Subsidies discourage farmers from innovating, cutting costs, diversifying their land use, and taking other actions needed to prosper in the competitive economy.
These two statements are true about the Creek Tribe after the Civil War:
1)They focused on rebuilding and reestablishing schools and churches.
2)They wrote a new constitution to attempt to bring peace and unity to the tribe.
The Civil War was disastrous for the Creek Nation (also known as the Muscogee people), even though the majority of the tribe wished to be neutral. The first three battles of the war in Indian Territory happened when Confederate forces attacked a large and neutral band led by Opothle Yahola. Eventually, hundreds of Creek men fought on both the Union and Confederate sides. After the war ended, the reconstruction treaty of 1866 required the cession of approximately half of the Muscogee land , almost 3.2 million acres.
The Creek nation began a period of regeneration after the war. Public buildings, schools and churches were built, including the Creek National Capital building (1867) in Okmulgee, now the Creek Council House Museum, included in the National Register of Historic Places.In 1867, the Muscogee people adopted a written constitution, which provided for a Principal Chief and a Second Chief, a judicial branch, and two legislative chambers composed of a House of Kings (similar to the Senate) and a House of Warriors (similar to the House of Representatives.) Representation in both houses of this Legislative assembly was determined by each tribal town. A new capitol city was established the same year at Okmulgee. In 1878 the tribal government build a native stone Council House. Today, its serves as the Council House Museum in the center of the modern city of Okmulgee.
Answer:

Answer:
It's demeaning
Explanation:
Bill O'Reiley was suggesting on his show that there are specific classes that are already categorized as upper lower and middle in the UK and India. He based the formation of a formation of an underclass by polling Americans and realizing that 57% of them are doing badly financially and the state of the economy was most concerning to them. The most poignant of facts is that the education system which is the second highest investment in the world but the students are performing poorly on tests anyway.
Conspiracy theorists claim that the minority students are being treated differently by a group in advocate of education, PEG. The minorities are made to believe that they are entitled and do not need to obey rules as the white children do. For this reason, an "underclass" is being created since minority children in school are not being held to the higher standard as the white children are.
This of course, is only his opinion, and the reason for creating such an, "underclass" is multifaceted and not from a single cause. On the other hand, referring to a group of people as "underclass" is demeaning and derogatory to say the least.
