      <![CDATA[Government programs to aid the elderly, the infirm, students, and the unemployed are destructive programs that promote laziness, dependence, irresponsibility, and a "moocher's" attitude--people who always want something for nothing, and look to others to take care of them.<br>
<br>
Government programs to prompt businesses to abandon one state and move to another are constructive, beneficial programs that create jobs, promote industrial development, raise the general standard of living, and are free from the negative influences of fostering dependence, irresponsibility, and a "moocher's" attitude on the beneficiaries.<br>
<br>
Individual welfare for the needy, downtrodden, and disenfranchised: bad.<br>
<br>
Corporate welfare for the rich, powerful, and influential: good.<br>
<br>
IMHO<br>

      <![CDATA[Isn't it horrible that our gas and oil companies make only tens of billions profit each quarter.  We can feel better when our government takes up the slack by giving them billions more in subsidies.  They are people too, right?  So, where's mine?

      <![CDATA[Speaking of tax incentives to lure businesses, etc., there's this:<br>
<br>
"The state tax credits for film production are pure lunacy from a policy perspective. For those not familiar with this boondoggle, it is basically the states pandering after film production by handing out free money to anyone that will produce a film in their state, although the cost is always kept off the expenditure ledger through the back door of tax credits. But a tax credit is no less an expenditure than a direct payment of hard cash."<br>
