How is the democratic motto of: "Tax the rich" not class warfare, and how does a tax increase directed at oil companies not fall into that category?

The primary motivation behind tax breaks to oil companies would appear to be to help them maintain their competative advantage in a global market.

I didn't know the class sytem applied to companies. When I say lower class i'm not talking about failing or small companies. I'm talking about a group of people. What is your class system like?

Why oil companies? How about a 7.6 billion deductions for semiconductor companies? That would serve my interests best and it could drive down the cost of consumer electronics for everyone.
