Everyone makes fun of it, but that shit was sooooo damn good. My aunt and uncle got government cheese when I was really little, and I loved going over for visits and grilled cheese, lol.

You should see South Dakota's strategic cabbage chamber.

Okay, see, if this were most of what the government did; I'd happily pay taxes.

I'd pay extra and ask how I could help. I'd be painting american flags on shit, instead of saying 'smash the state'.

Working on my night cheese

All they're doing is making earth's crust cheese stuffed.

It was, but I do believe they've sold off a lot of it by now

It would be all well and good to decry the government "propping up Big Dairy," if any kind of real social safety nets existed in our stupid country. Ya know, to help the actual people who would be out on their asses, if any large industry really started struggling.

But we're not gonna do that in the USA, now are we?

Subsidizing industries, bending rules, creating loopholes, zero-interest loans, etc....that's the closest we can come to securing and protecting the welfare of any large group of working-class people. It shouldn't be that way, but the political climate is only getting WORSE, in terms of us being entirely unable to enact better solutions.

It just is what it is. Indirectly propping up regular people's livelihoods by enriching the Cheese Barons is the best we can do, as stupid as it sounds to actually say that.

Same with the rest of the food system, the airlines, the private utility companies, auto makers, etc. I'm not gonna be the one to just say "well, we should stop propping up these fat-cats," if it means people literally end up homeless.

The working people are basically hostages. If the government stops playing by the Ultra-Capitalists' rules, well, they aren't bluffing. They'll just fold up a huge portion of whatever industry they're currently invested in, let people become destitute by the tens of thousands, and re-invest that cash in some new racket.

Complaining about farm and cheese subsidies is like accusing the hostage negotiator of collaborating with criminals, because he sends some pizzas into the bank, during a hostage crisis. The poor hostages are the ones eating most of the fucking pizza. At least they won't die hungry, if they end up getting shot. Don't take their pizza away, just to keep it from the hostage-takers.

My people!

Not this, it comes from the free blocks of Velveeta style "cheese" the us government would give low income families in the 1980's

Sorry for the YouTube link but this explains not only the phrase, but also the entire think this post is about.

Giving everyone either horrible constipation or violent diarrhea.

There's a lot of incredible American- made cheeses, usually from more local cheese makers. Wisconsin and Vermont are the most fampus for their cheeses, but every state probably has good cheesemakers and there are some pretty good national brands. But the main cheese section at your typical grocery store is mostly just mass-produced cheap cheese that is probably more what you're referring too, which is fine for most uses (e.g. cooking) but eaten alone i would describe as perfectly fine but not great. A lot of grocery stores have a nicer cheese section, but it's usually in a section of the store more with other small bites.

We have normal cheese here too. American cheese is a specific kind of cheese, the same way Swiss cheese is. If you ask me, American cheese is nasty, but we do have good cheese in America

If you're talking about the cheese called "American cheese", then it's somewhat polarizing in preferences. But just like all cheeses, it's made for a very specific purpose: in this case, being amazing at melting. As a result, it's best on cheeseburgers, grilled cheese, mac and cheese, etc. But it also has a distinct, mild flavor that some don't like.

I wouldn't go eat a slice of it, but it's good on burgers.
