A crushing amount of U.S. taxes are collected from average and underpaid citizens, and put into the hands of profitable businesses to excessively line a few pockets.
The cost in unnecessary subsidies is matched by the cost in uncollected taxes from these same exceptionally profitable businesses.
Businesses should be fully disqualified from all federal subsidies and tax breaks while they reward at least one person individually with more than 10 times the federal minimum wage. All rewards are calculated in: wages and salaries, bonuses, stock options, and all other benefits paid by the business for the sole benefit of an individual. This includes all employees, contractors, and other people hired by the business.
