Time magazine (Special Report/Corporate Welfare. November 9, 1998. Vol 152. No 19.) offers this definition:

any action by local, state or federal government that gives a corporation or an entire industry a benefit not offered to others. It can be an outright subsidy, a grant, real estate, a low-interest loan or a government service. It can also be a tax break -- a credit, exemption, deferral or deduction, or a tax rate lower than the one others pay

I think I'd like to word in at least part of this, but I can't right now. --Ryguasu 07:46 Dec 16, 2002 (UTC)
