There are probably a million examples of taxpayer funded subsidies to businesses, and there are outright Welfare Programs for those who do not work. ClapperZapper told us just a couple days ago that he was employed working on the design of gear shift linkages for General Motors, Chrysler, and John Deere. GM is a mammoth corporation that has gotten untold subsidies, tax breaks, tax abatements, etc. Then there was that little multi-billion dollar bailout to "save" GM from liquidation. Tens of millions of dollars has not been paid back, and never will. Is it fair to assume that CZ has benefited financially, if indirectly, from taxpayer funded hand-outs to GM? Or perhaps the earlier bailout of Chrysler? What did all of you who never worked for GM get out of the deal to give tax dollars to a corporation that spent the last 30 years moving assets and jobs out of this country?
