Libertarian thought for the day:I saw some post on facebook that said..."You value is not determined by who is worth the most but who provides the most service to the people". Then it had a picture of some white dude in Africa serving some kind of soup....But there is a sign on McDonalds that says "More than 1 billion people served"....So then wouldn't the owner of McDonalds be one of the greatest people in the world considering all the hungry people he has served?My point is: big businesses serve the wants and needs of their customers through products and services. So how are they not serving humanity when they provide things such as cell phones, computers, transportation, etc. that increase our standard of living? But yet, they are the bad guys and the big evil capitalists, go figure, ficca.

Corporations are only evil to people with persecution issues.

Or people who are tired of their tax dollars going to corporate welfare. I hate Fascism I usually don't get upset about any tax breaks or subsidies, corporate or otherwise, legal or not so much. Everyone is entitled to protect their paper in my opinion, whether it's a waiter not declaring their tips, or GE receiving federal grant money for "technology research". I don't recommend that everybody tries game the system, but I do understand why people or businesses do. Money is what makes the difference between suffering and prosperity in life, and to attain or more importantly retain as much as possible should be one of the highest priorities a person maintains. How does "corporate welfare" directly affect you in any negative manner?
