So what if the single mom applying for welfare transfers her bank account to somebody else's name?
So what if unions go in strike and close down the business to get more money?
So what if the poor avoid taxes? By not voting for people, like Herman Cain, who would raise their taxes?

Why else?

But they link the two together, as if corporations have a responsibility to provide jobs.

There is one such glaring example of the Billionaires at 740 Park Avenue in New York City.
Bush and Romney both paid a visit to some of these billionaires personally for campaign donations.
In return, legislation is written to benefit them. That is not free market capitalism at work.

I notice many on this board spout about Capitalism and Free Markets, but yet then turn around and support the buying of politicians to rig the game in their favor.
It is all lies and propaganda. They don't really support it.
And no mention of George Soros? Of course not, to do so would make your argument debunked.

then again it is legal to claim to be unable to work and soak other Americans to feed and pay your way. Its an abused system called welfare.
