While Canadians Struggle, ~~Energy~~ Corporations Are Laughing All the Way to the Bank

Fixed that for you.

Makes you wonder why everyone doesn't incorporate, thus allowing every single one of us to laugh all the way to the bank. Perhaps we fear success?

We fear prosecution for fraud and tax evasion, because we can't afford corporate lawyers.

You could if you were incorporated. Perhaps you missed @Showroom7561@lemmy.ca's comment?

Sure, but do all Corporate sectors get dozens of billions in direct and indirect subsidies year after year?

"What's this about subsidies???" —Elon, probably

I think so, yeah? Is the answer yes?
