The exemption on silicon valley's sales tax is a defacto subsidy of billionaires.
Why stop there? food stamps are a subsidy for corporate ag. Public roads are a subsidy for big oil. And schools are a subsidy for all the companies that don't educate their workers. Wow, we are very smart of have realized this
Damn sounds like we need some good old fashioned communism so we make sure the subsidies are going to the people rather than some rich egomaniacs hedge fund
