All the US does is grant and gift corporate welfare to the tune of trillions

Those same corporations then layoff american workers and offshore them to cheaper countries.
Then those same corporations pay the executive class billions of dollars in income, while they cut benefits for the remaining US workers.

Then the US government cuts billions in welfare to ordinary citizens because we can't afford it.
Trillions in welfare for the corporations is A-OK, billions for citizens is unacceptable.

Why do you suppose a corporate lobbyist funds a politician, its all because they want some of that sweet corporate welfare.

There are no lobbyists trying to expand welfare for single mothers, or poor children.

Keep in mind Hillary was in support of welfare reform, calling welfare recipients deadbeats. Hillary is for corporate welfare which enriches billionaires.

Bernie holds the exact opposite position.
