President Eisenhower slams farmers with subsidy remark
The President sparked a storm by saying farmers receive more than 1000 dollars each annually in government subsidies. Agriculture Secretary Benson corrected him calling it incentives and urged clarity on how much of the USDA budget aids farmers versus other programs. The exchange ended with Ike apologizing and vowing to avoid the term again.
