"Subsidies" are basically Big Golden Lolly-Pops for Uber Riche Corporations and Big Dollar Donors to "the Political Process". By the brain-boggling algorithms of Mad Murky Math, The Flubber-Ducky Party Partisans of Raypubluhkuhn Neo-Cons (during their hay-day in the Bushy Era) made up Laws that take "Taxpayer Money" out of the Holy Empire of the Federal Reserve Bank and deposit it into Sacred Accounts of Top Dollar Donors in order "to prevent market fluctuations". (I hear the groans: 'Blah blah blah blah, wtf is the old bag on about now!?!?') HOW MUCH YOU PAY for GAS!! Got your attention? Ok. The infamous Exxon Oil Corp, which last year made more $Trillions in Net-Profits (after deducting all expenses) than anyone in recorded history & Paid Not One Red Cent in US Taxes!...received over $435 Billions (w/a "B") in US Taxpayer "Subsidies" to "stabilize market valuations and the cost of petroleum products to consumers". Or...to make Sure YOU keep paying $3.00 a gallon for gas, give or take a few cents. This year, Exxon alone (w/o all their other Chummy Bubbas in "The Industry") are set to receive over $636 Billions in "Subsidies", while paying exactly $0 in US Taxes. That amount would more than make-up for any fictitious "short-falls" in All "Entitlements" to Education, Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, etc. etc. and so on..... ("But YOU are not getting your grubby dirty paws on Our Money, you no-good dirty lazy-hippie bums!! So forgedaboutit! humph!" say the Lord-Masters of Wall Street and their Loyal Little Worker-Bees on K Street and in Con'gress.) "So what?" you say? That means that Not Only will YOU be expected to "Sacrifice" to make up for the "Short-falls in Entitlements" but YOU can EXPECT TO PAY MORE for GAS & for "Subsidies", too!! Because the extra Subsidies paid to Exxon, etc. this year will "Rise like the Phoenix" next year. Why? Oh hah. Here's the Mad Murky Math part: the More OIL Exxon pumps out of the Earth and the Cheaper that OIL is to pump out of the Earth, the More "potential glut" they have to put on the Market which would "de-stabilize market values and consumer prices"...meaning the More "Subsidies" Money US Taxpayers pay to Exxon to Prevent them from refining and selling said "excess" OIL-Gas-Petrol products, in order to keep Their Net Profits, Their Stock Quotas, and YOUR Prices UP, UP & AWAY...... I told you it was Mad Murky Math but that is exactly how it works! And YOU get to Pay for it all, dudes! Thanx to the Lord-Masters of Walls Street and their Flubber-Ducky Party Partisan Worker-Bees in Con'gress and K-Street. Tah-da! *'p....
