US Senator John Fetterman
made a point (click) that Republicans dislike very much. Which means he raised an excellent topic:
If people living on food stamps have to do something in return for government support, why don't large companies have to do something to earn their millions in bail out money?In other words: why do poor people have to follow rules that don't apply to fossil fuel companies like ExxonMobile (click), Tesla, Amazon...?
Specifically Fetterman named
Sillicon Valley Bank (click). Basically the bank's executives gambled with other people's money and when they lost, demanded that taxpayers would bail them out. So they had nothing to lose personally. Not ever their high paid jobs. Unsurprisingly the bank executives, nor Republicans were eager to reply to Fetterman's questions.

It seems a wordwide common practice: ask for a dime and you're seen as a homeless drunk, a parasite of society; demand a billion and you're decent capitalist.
Do you think everyone should work for money they receive from the government (a.k.a. the tax payer) or only people who don't have a private jet?
