than to build a free market.

Where We Help The Biggest Corporations,

Because Why Should They Have To Take Risks?

Welcome to the official site of the South Carolina Department of Corporate Welfare (SC-DCW)! Are you a large corporation? Looking for a state that’ll roll out the red carpet, offer you tax breaks, and make sure all your risks are eliminated? Look no further! South Carolina is ready to sacrifice—no, invest—on your behalf.

Our Philosophy

Why let free markets operate when you can have corporate welfare instead? Sure, Adam Smith had that whole invisible hand thing, but we prefer the visible hand of government handing out checks to the already rich.

After all, isn’t that what public funds are for? Helping the most successful businesses become even more successful! Remember, trickle-down economics only works when the state floods the top

What We Offer (to the Big Guys)

Your tax dollars at work, but mostly for them.

Welfare for Winners

Why innovate or compete when you can get generous subsidies? If you’re a multi-billion-dollar company in need of extra taxpayer dollars to cushion your blow, we’re here for you.

Unleash the Power of Business

Job Creation (or Something Like That)

Create five jobs, get a massive tax break! Sure, we could invest in small businesses or local communities, but wouldn’t you rather see that money help a corporation that could have easily funded itself? So could we!

Best Enterprise Methodologies

Red Tape, but Only for the Little Guys

At SC-DCW, we ensure that regulations don’t get in the way of the real economy makers—the big corporations. As for small businesses, we encourage them to enjoy the rich experience of filling out forms for a permit to expand their coffee shop.

Testimonials

“As a Fortune 500 company, we were nervous about paying our own way. Luckily, the SC Department of Corporate Welfare swooped in with a sweet deal that made our shareholders very happy. Thanks, SC-DCW!”

Anonymous Mega-Corporation

“We tried operating in a state where we had to pay for our own infrastructure and labor. That was awful. Thankfully, South Carolina knows who really needs help—the billion-dollar corporations!”

Corporate Giant

“We asked for a few million in subsidies, and they didn’t even blink! It’s like South Carolina is the gift that keeps on giving. Well, mostly just giving!”
