Many small farmers do not like dealing with subsidies as they find
they take too much paperwork, and often do not pay enough for what it is worth.
Most small businesses and people are like this. How many rebate
forms have you filled out the past 12 months?
My wife is a stay at home empty nester. She fills out each and every
rebate form we get so it makes a difference, but we are highly
unusual in that realm, many consumers do not as it is not worth their time.
The rewards must be worth it or they are not rewards, but just nuisances.

Then why do folks get so upset when someone proposes paying rewards to
students who get good grades?
Often the problem with rewards is that people expend huge resources
finding ways to game the system. For starters, consider crop subsidies.
Yet the same folks who oppose helping kids will be the strongest
supporters of payouts to giant agrabusinesses. Why?
