Help me out here, you support government subsidy to oil companies, yet you oppose government subsidy to other energy companies, because you say they can not survive on private capital alone.
By that logic, shouldn't we cut subsidy to all energy companies, and let the market dictate the outcome?

First.. I don't support subsidies.. But I don't support corporate taxes, either.

At all..

What happens is, the corporation never pays them. They flow through and end up entwined in the cost of gods and services.

People pay taxes, not corporations.

And, as I pointed out, tax breaks are fundamentally different from writing checks..
