Say I wanna pay someone for driving up in a Cadillac and picking up and then cashing a check? That ain't* 'welfare'? That ain't a SUBSIDY?* Funny. No one cares about "paying someone for driving up in a Cadillac and picking up and then cashing a check". Your giving them the money as welfare, not paying them to take the drive. If your primary aim is to improve a companies profits, or help them gain market share (and you get no return from the profits or market share so it isn't an investment) than that is corporate welfare. Its not paying them for something, its giving to them. Exercise of MONOPOLY PRICING POWER means --- by definition! --- that the market is a monopoly market, no longer a free market. No, that simply isn't part of the definition, and it would be ridiculous to add it.
