This type of corporate welfare has been going on since the 1950's under Eisenhower! This is not a liberal or a conservative issue. This is an issue we face as Americans. Who are the free riders?

The problem with Americans today is to many of us take sides. (Left & Right as the post above points out) When battles confront us, we should work together as one voice, as Americans!

To many Americans are angry and power hungry, unwilling to compromise even when it's in their best interest to do so.

That willingness by some will bring an end to American as we know it. This unwillingness will not change America be for the better.

Read your history about the Roman Empire & what destroyed it. We ARE the modern Roman Empire. Beware, as history always repeats itself.

All Americans should pay something. Those roads and bridges you drive your family on were built by government, And a Republican I might add, not by so called "job creators".

That military that keeps us free is paid for by Government taxes.

Not Exxon Mobil or General Electric who pay nothing and collect Billions of tax payer money. They are no better than those on welfare or food stamps, who many here look down on.

Those companies call America home, knowing their profits will be safe from outside sources. Because the military of the United States of America protects them as they do you and your family.

So what is unfair about asking those corporations to pay their fair share as we do in sharing the American dream?
