Talk:Socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor

Possible move to Corporate welfare edit

This article is a notable topic with a far broader scope than Corporate welfare.

For example, it includes the infliction of some of the harsher elements of the capitalist system onto the poor. And it includes monetary policies that favor rich people who are not themselves members of a corporation and may not even hold any corporate related assets.

The above aspects would be out of place in the redirect target - it's almost bordering on WP:OR to pipe this to Corporate welfare. Redirection deprives readers of a useful article. This topic has survived two AfDs with 'keep' results. It should not be redirected unless strong arguments can be put forth here and concensus is gained.

No, no it's not. It's the same damn thing spammed across multiple articles, with this one being the most egregious example. Aside from a brief one or two sentence note on the origin of the term, it's the same as "Corporate welfare". At the end of the day it's a rarely used neologism - and not every catchy phrase deserves its own article - and unless we're going to delete it, a redirect is the best way to go.
