...biggest welfare queen recipients? Uh no. Not even close. It’s corporations receiving not only subsidies, but tax advantages so broad that 2/3 of corporations pay no federal income taxes because of the deductions in their favor. The “official” tax rate doesn’t mean jack shit when so many deductions and loopholes are available to them. It’s the “effective” tax rate that actually matters.

I mean okay, you hate food stamps. That’s fine. However, you want to only scrub food stamps and not corporate subsidies and tax breaks? The year cost of food stamps is a small fraction of the overall advantages rich people and corporations have.

Sure, the GOP loves to rail against food stamp cost per year, yet they choose not to acknowledge the generous benefits corporations get. Hasn’t that occurred to republican voters? No apparently not. They just trust the GOP no matter what.

Now you may be okay with corporations getting these benefits, yet you can’t explain why poor people pay more in federal taxes than 2/3 of corporations?

Well... If you bothered to supply data, and some numbers... Maybe people might be inclined to agree.
 
Why do you always address only Republicans?

I don't disagree with you. **** corporate welfare. If you can't make it without a bailout, you can't ******* make it. Time to close up shop.

A tax break is NOT a subsidy. Hate to break it to you...well, no; I don't hate to break it to you. It's just a fact.

I have no problem with food stamps to the truly needy. However, food stamps are a State responsibility, not a Federal one.

The same reason all of the lolberal ideas on cutting spending begin and end with the Pentagon: party > nation.
