Republicans love playing the food stamp card as if its a big drain on the Budget when if fact its pennies. The people always complaining about these welfare types must really have envy towards someone who sits at home and gets food from the government living in a shight hole without a job....or may not even want one(job). Envy of someone getting money for sitting at home, thats it. They truly are jealous. They wish they could sit in an apartment all day watching Price is right. I am correct. aren't I? They're just jealous? Because if they weren't envious, they would also complain about Exxon Mobil, BP, Conoco Phillips, Chevron and Shell. All Billion dollar companies and receive total of 4 Billion dollars in tax breaks every year. Wow, I guess when a company earns over 100 billion a year it hard to find enough money around to pay its taxes. But hey, they're rich and rich is always right huh? The only difference between these Food stamp TAKERS and walmart employees is the food stampers stay home and make the same amount of cash as the Walmart employee. And Mentioning Walmart. The Billion Dollar walmart pays their employees so little that, in the state of California, those employees are having to get government assistance in the tune of 86 million dollars. Now look at that. The tax payers of california are paying Walmarts employees in the form of Food stamps etc so Walmart owners can be rich. Some would call this corporate welfare. But not Repulicans. Haliburton received a contract over 500 million dollars in no bid deal. No bid? In Business wouldn't it be wise to go through a bidding process to get the best deal and fairest price? That's just plan stupid, right? I mean Who the heck is Haliburton anyway?....what?.....George Bush's Vice president was a former CEO of the Company? Oh Got it now. At least 40 billion in total went to Haliburton and not one republican said a word.
Direct federal subsidies to corporations: The Cato Institute estimates that federal subsidies to corporations cost taxpayers almost $100 billion every year. Federal tax breaks for corporations: The tax code gives corporations special tax breaks that have reduced what is supposed to be a 35-percent tax rate to an actual tax rate of 13 percent, saving these corporations an additional $200 billion annually. Not a word From republicans.
What we've learned from it all is, Tyron take money from Government bad, Millionaires and Billionaires taking from Government good. Or, again, maybe they're just jealous of someone receiving 200 dollars a week and sitting at home.
