Huge corporations in every sector get massive corporate welfare. Did ya'll know that the 10 most profitable companies paid an average of 9% in taxes in 2011?

Sure, they're taking advantage of the tax rules, but here's the part you never hear about: they spend huge amounts of money on bribes, oops I mean lobbying and campaign contributions, to modify the tax code in their favor.

Corporatism aka fascism FTW
