4. Shouldn't our cut be higher, since we're the ones paying the most into it?

Seriously there should be some type of welfare for everybody.
Who is it that wanted to send out a living wage of a $1000 a month.

5. No, I'm saying that gov't income from corporations used to be a higher share of revenues...

Not talking about payouts or welfare. Talking about income taxes, where corporations used to pay a larger share than individuals.
