No no no. CORPORATE WELFARE is bajillions of dollars in annual handouts to CORPORATIONS, not people. It's the Republicans who insist on this unneeded welfare to corporate entities like Exxon, etc. And thanks to them, corporations have free speech as if they were individual people....i.e., they cannot be restricted from promoting their collective views.
