!["Socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor" is a classical political-economic argument asserting that, in advanced capitalist societies, state policies assure that more resources flow to the rich than to the poor, for example in the form of transfer payments.[1]
The term corporate welfare is widely used to describe the bestowal of favorable treatment to big business (particularly corporations) by the government. One of the most commonly raised forms of criticism are statements that the capitalist political economy toward large corporations allows them to benefit from government interventions ("lemon socialism").[2] The argument has been raised and cited on many occasions.
Variations of the concept, include "privatize profits and socialize risks" (or "privatize gains and socialize risks") as well as "free markets for the poor while state protection for the rich".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:x4ug4cbrc7divc32qiyumbul/bafkreia2p23ea4d3cbmyetofoh3nqjgonuukw6uu66yshok44rdns77vpm@jpeg)
![Former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich adapted this phrase on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on October 16, 2008: "We have socialism for the rich, and capitalism for everyone else."[21] Comedian Jon Stewart later characterized this in a debate with Bill O'Reilly by asking, "Why is it that if you take advantage of a tax break and you're a corporation, you're a smart businessman—but if you take advantage of something that you need to not be hungry, you're a moocher?"[22]
The late journalist John Pilger included the phrase in his speech accepting Australia's human rights award, the Sydney Peace Prize, on November 5, 2009:[23]
Democracy has become a business plan, with a bottom line for every human activity, every dream, every decency, every hope. The main parliamentary parties are now devoted to the same economic policies – socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor – and the same foreign policy of servility to endless war. This is not democracy. It is to politics what McDonald's is to food.
In 2022, economist Yanis Varoufakis offered a similar version of this phrase in his critique of the response of governments and central banks to the 2008 financial crisis and the 2021–2022 inflation surge, describing these measures as "nothing short of lavish socialism for capital and harsh austerity for labor."[24]
In 2023, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. used a variation of this phrase on Tucker Carlson Tonight, saying that in the contemporary United States, "there's a cushy socialism for the rich and this kind of brutal, merciless capitalism for the poor."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:x4ug4cbrc7divc32qiyumbul/bafkreiaia2vgwi7kbmuufnd3comvrjkqtkgrdrhgitatvxqam3ck7f4hdm@jpeg)
