Well words do actually matter and this subject is a perfect example. The word "subsidies" has been thrown out for so long now that even educated and otherwise reasonable people are on the train to wrongville. Funny how that works.Everyone interprets words in their own way. Subsidies to one are a tax break, or loan to another. A bit like infringement to one is a sensible move to another.
Just try to look at the entire picture and actually think of all the possible pros and cons of any proposal. Oklahoma needs more employers.
