Eliminate billions in corporate welfare
The federal government must take the lead in making significant cuts in spending. Tens of billions of dollars in corporate welfare--essentially aid to dependent corporations--should be eliminated. Largesse for middle- and upper-income
Americans, particularly so-called “entitlement” programs, must be cut. Billions in so-called defense spending, which protects America’s populous, prosperous allies rather than Americans, must be eliminated.
