It would not bother me if Trump was invested in the companies, and those companies use the tax structure and incentives to their best advantage.

The problem are the subsidies themselves. Business exist to make money and they are run by fools if they don’t use the legal tools available to them to meet that goal.

The businesses are not the problem. The bad government policies and those that continue them are the problem.

His comment didn’t make a lot of sense to me.

It sounds like he’s saying that oil is cheap and wind can’t compete so let’s subsidize it.

While I don’t have any issues with him having investments, its pretty unseemly to push subsidies in the direction of his investments (if he has them)
