Thing is, when someone thinks about it, Mike's right, we probably can't just auto blame greedy ceo's. Is there a viable counter argument for the corporate welfare mantra.

A micro example of the problem might be cali. They imposed large per container 'environmental' surcharge increases. Kind of addresses, to a tiny degree, the shipping/tariff angle, plus they nearly lock up the entire left coast. I wonder if that tariff is put to meaningful use, and why unfunded liabilities are forgotten.
