Examples include Rep. Stephen Fincher (R-TN), who demanded cuts to the food stamp program while receiving millions of dollars in government subsidies over the years.

J. Allen Carnes, who is running for Texas Agriculture Commissioner, has received nearly a million dollars from the Department of Agriculture over the past twenty years, and all of his primary opponents have received at least some money. And three of those opponents have taken Fincher's position on food stamps.

NC State Rep. David Lewis of Harnett County is also an example.

He's a small government conservative that gets $2.5 million in farm subsides.
