That’s an almost sociopathic way of looking at society. Government is the organization that we, the people, have created to accomplish our common goals. If you think that government is just a big fat cow that needs to be fleeced, and that people who are doing just that are worthy of praise, then I consider you with the same esteem as someone who steals from their neighbors.

I think that the problem lies with the the voters and politicians who set up programs with explicit purpose of giving cash to mega corporations that don't need it. It isn't reasonable to put out a sign that says "free cows" and then blame the those who apply for and receive the cow.

The solution is to stop giving handouts to corporations with billions in profit, not rely on them to refuse the free money.

Both stealing from neighbors and taking advantage of the govt are very common acts and it's naive to think otherwise

I never said it’s uncommon, I just said I completely and utterly detest the people who do this kind of thing.

It is government that steals income tax from my neighbors and from me.
