i wouldn't normally support tax incentives and subsidies as a government policy because i'm not normally very concerned about helping businesses. won't somebody think about the corporations?

but this isn't normal.

normally, i want to tax profits to build a tax base to fund services for people. right now, for the short run, we're going to need to tax (rich) people to build a tax base to prop up industry. i don't like it, but it's real.
