They are tax loop holes, which are allowed because our politicians are puppets to them. Both Romney and Obama vowed to end them too.

It's funny hardcore conservatives are fine with corporate welfare but when it comes to poverty welfare, it's just a bunch of degenerates abusing tax payers. When it's billion dollar corporations, oh well it's not illegal so it's fine. Both types of welfare are legal, yet conservatives only attack the one effecting millionaires/billionaires.

I'm voting for Bernie and I've stated many times I support government assistant programs for poor. I just dislike improper terms in a discussion.

Our demographics are halfway between the northern European Social Democracies which work well( but I have no desire to live in their socialist nirvana) and Venezuela. If you like their systems so much better, please move and access their nirvana systems...for as long as they work.

As long as the replacement generations agree and work to pay for the previous retired generation, the Social Democracies work fairly well but as we are seeing in Greece, it can only go so far.
