31. I think most people don't quite get the concept of the tax breaks
you can get under the corporate shield. If your corporation is financially strong enough, not only can you influence politicians, you can write off almost ALL of your lifestyle. Wanna play golf at Pebble Beach? No problem, business expense. Breakfast, lunch, dinner at the French Laundry? business expense. Sky box at the Super bowl? Business expense. Limo, Lear jet? Business expense.

The term "Business expense" = taxpayer funded corporate welfare and the folks at the top get almost everything at the expense of the proletariat taxpayer. They actually pay almost nothing of their predatory salaries for actual living expenses. Instead, they dump it on the rest of us while they sit on the beach in San Trope.

It's time to eat them.
