The next time you hear someone gripe about corporations not paying their “fair share” of taxes, try this reply:

“So let me get this straight: You want to take resources away from an efficient, wealth-creating organization (i.e., a corporation) and give them to a demonstrably inefficient, corrupt, wealth-destroying organization which wastes everything it touches (i.e., the federal government). And why is this, exactly?”
