Sorry, I wasn't actually speaking to you, just posting a thought. However, just now you write:

Most welfare is parasitism, corporate or otherwise. When, in your estimation, is welfare NOT parasitic?

Re: "I don't believe there should be any earning class (or corporation) not paying taxes."

That runs counter to what many of your right-wing pals on this board think. They argue that Big Business should pay no taxes whatsoever and that America's middle class should shoulder a greater share of the burden.

Taxation of corporations is double taxation. The shareholders get hit twice -- first in profits THEIR company makes, then on their personal return.

Liberals would come up with a triple tax if they could. Oh, they have. Things like windfall profits taxes, federal excise taxes, etc. etc.
