Cut the expensive welfare program

No, not the ones that give healthcare, food stamps, or social security. The ones that are actually costing the avg American household thousands of dollars a year. The welfare programs we need to cut are the corporate welfare. The avg American household loses [b][u]$6000[/u][/b] a year to corporate welfare programs. So I ask, where is the cry from republicans who are "fiscally conservative" to cut these programs that are costing us billions? [quote]Overall, American families are paying an annual $6,000 subsidy to corporations that have doubled their profits and cut their taxes in half in ten years whilecutting 2.9 million jobs in the U.S. and adding almost as many jobs overseas. This is more than an insult. It's a devastating attack on the livelihoods of tens of millions of American families. And Congress just lets it happen.[/quote] Discuss. http://www.commondreams.org/views/2013/09/23/add-it-average-american-family-pays-6000-year-subsidies-big-business

    healthcare, food stamps, and social security are exactly the programs that need to go away. I interviewed a 20 something young lady yesterday for a position at my work. She is a single mom that has a passion to go to work. However she chooses not to because she makes more money staying at home doing nothing from the "free" government programs then she would if I offered her a job at 50k a year. She just goes to interviews and turns down the jobs so she can keep getting the "free" money.
