What are your thoughts on Corporate Welfare?
Or do you believe that pork barrel spending, earmarks, subsidies are a wonderful way to spend our tax dollars? You always hear people griping and complaining about entitlement programs and social programs, but these same people seem to support our government giving tax dollars to big business. Remember that farming subsidy program that was supposed to help the small farmers compete on the market? Why are agrigiants like ADM getting subsidized when their factory farms destroy small farmers and they employ illegals? Why are we paying big Pharma to sell our elderly prescription medicine at a higher cost? Why do we subsidize Big Oil while they rake in record profits and we pay astronomical prices at the pump? Why do we allow the Government to give no bid contracts out to Halliburton, with no regards to cost? It's your money people! crknapp - Why should my tax dollars go to pay for your employees? Pay for your own employees. That's no different than handing them a welfare check... only the corporation is benefiting.

- I would much rather give a corporation welfare while it continues to pay it's employees vs. giving all those that would be unemployed welfare.
- Each instance has its own details. So you cannot throw a blanket yes or no to this question.
- don't complain about welfare system. if you want to complain, you should complain about military spending in Iraq
