Let us all compile a list. I will start with corporate welfare.
Right and left can all agree?

Your first subject is a good idea in principle, but there is no agreement in the forum on definition of corp welfare. Those who hate corporations (as they type on their corporate-made computers) will naturally say NO to corporate welfare. But it could be that a corp qualifies under a govt program to fund some corp problem, a perfectly logical program that was hammered out by your congressional representatives. It is not 'free money' and its purpose is to get the corp back on track so your granny can buy their products.
Please give us one clear definition of corporate welfare.

You mean subsidies.
Is it your assertion that all subsidies are corporate welfare?

Anyone who’s not a corporate suck up or a shareholder will agree on this as a non partisan issue.
Low conviction rates and lenient sentences for rapists and child abusers would be another non partisan gripe, hopefully.

Corporate welfare is support by the government, no clearer way to say it. It could even be a loan from the government. There are many here who do not even understand the nature of bankruptcy, so to have a discussion seems to bode getting tiresome. When Suzy tells us all that bankruptcy is stupid, do you want to chat with She about it?
