You are correct about corporate welfare, the government, the TV commontaters, the shock jock who have all trained to focus on welfare for individuals,
choose to say nothing abut corporate welfare. This is likely to be because they dare not talk about it as from what I can see, corporate welfare is an
undiscussable topic all over the western world.
Welfare for individuals is demonized, those who receive it are demonised and are held responsibility for all the respective nations economic problems.
Its odd how those who exert the least control over the national economic fortunes are help accountable for poor economic performance.
Is the fact that TV, radio, social commontaters, shock jocks etc do not talk about corporate welfare because no one has told them about it? Is it
because they have not thought about it themselves? Is it because they believe that because there are no figures published about how much tax goes in
corporate welfare, that they therefore don't believe it exists?
In my country this very day I hear on the news that people who don't deserve welfare are giving tips on a website on how to get it. If this is not
demonising the poor the unemployed, the old, the sick and the infirm what
is?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
This is a deliberate attempt to make welfare for individuals a 4 letter word while saying nothing about corporate welfare. How much tax is paid out in
corporate welfare in the OECD each year I wonder ???
