Where is the column for externalities in the breakdown of corporate welfare? (e pluribus unum in terms of externalities borne by the citizenry) Heating bills pale in comparison, but even those are corporate welfare. Interesting article. It doesn't surprise me. You'd think Obama would publicly rail against it. Since he's not, it would seem that he, like Hillary, is really only a product of corporate interest. The rest of your post is beyond me. I haven't the faintest idea what you mean. Oh, and again, I have no problem with corporations getting out of taxation. All corporate taxation is, is a pass through tax on to consumers. It's a little hidden tax to the middle class politicians, especially politicians like the Bern, can claim are tough on evil capitalists. When in fact it's just a burden on labor. I do, no doubt all costs are passed onto the consumers, why not all profits passed on to the producers? The reason is that everywhere it's been tried it has devistated the economy. While the capatolist systems has raised more people out of poverty than any other thing, or combination of things. Where has it been tried? Oh, like Norway, hell like the Nordic countries altogether. They are not devastated, I just checked, happier than shit. Where has the capitalist system raised people out of poverty? times and places please, along with credible citations of causality and correlation. (Hint, do not use the US or the UK prior to say, Reagans time, which we can historically prove that since then, its been sending them into poverty, nor anyone we have a trade agreement with, particularly Japan (hell all asian countries) or anything in Europe. Feel free to demonstrate with Russia, cuz thats about what you have left. Because of what Adam Smith and Marx really said aint gonna cut it, nor is that from the time of Washington to about Eisenhower gonna cut it either.
