Sounds like our Agriculture industry. The people that unironically cry socialism when kids get free school lunch and shit...

That’s actually the joke. The book Catch-22 has a story about Major Major ( rank, name) whose father scammed the government for corn subsidies by not farming.

Good book, I would recommend it!
