1. eRiposte Economy - Tax : Corporate Welfare
Corporate taxes in the United States are essentially near multi-decade lows. ...
spending for low-income programs by more than three to one: $167 billion to $51.7
... the poor costs the average taxpayer about $400 a year, while spending on ...
benefit poor people. -. 2, 3, Facts on. Individual vs. Corporate Welfare ...

Many people don't know this. I certainly didn't think corporate welfare
was more than 3 times higher than welfare for the poor. I imagine most

among them - and widely?
