Sam Clovis on Corporations

 

 


End corporate welfare subsidies & crony capitalism grants

Congress needs to have the discipline to examine and then eliminate at least 50% of the grants and subsidies that comprise unnecessary and damaging market interference. There are over 2000 subsidies and 1000 grant programs that cost American taxpayers some $1.5 Trillion a year. Imagine the effects of allowing markets to work as they should. This corporate welfare, crony capitalism and unjust redistribution of tax dollars should be halted and is the primary responsibility of the Congress. As a senator, I will wage a tireless battle against these programs that reward special interests and punish the American people.
