This whole subject is rhetorical because it is dependent upon your beliefs. If you lean right you see it as welfare and socialism.. if you lean left you feel the current system has not worked and needs to change. There is no common ground amongst any of you.
The 70s is a good ground for the crap being spewed here. Windfall profits, evil corporations, taxing the rich and giving to the poor. Oh yes... that worked well. Then when we use trickle-down it does work until the socialists get their hands in the cookie jar and taint it. BTW we had defecits before Reagan and surpluses after. It works, its when you loons try to "disney-fy" capitalism so that charities are given out that it screws up. Capitalism isnt perfect but its worked the best so far.

Look at all the other marxist-style governments, broke as hell.
Welcome to the "changed united states".......comrade.
