Clawback

1. Money or benefits that are distributed and then taken back as a result of special circumstances.

This is the State demanding a do-over. I first heard the term Clawback in late 2008. It is a new term. It is generally referenced when a public-private partnership collapses and the State wants their money back.[erikhawkes]

This is also theft. Once money or benefits are distributed to another individual or entity, the giver cannot confiscate those assets unless ordered to do so by a court of law. This is the new era of American Fascism. The State as a predator with Claws. [erikhawkes]

“Clawback” bill passes the House, moves on to Senate
(feb 25, 2013)

A bill that would put some teeth in taxpayer-funded business projects breezed through the House of Representatives on Monday (Feb. 25) in a 68-0 vote.

House Bill 352, which would attach “clawback” provisions to companies that receive taxpayer money so that if the companies fail to make good on their promises, municipalities and the state can recoup some of the losses.

"It's like losing a war to Hitler. And they say in advance: what would it be if you lost a war to Hitler? Well I don't know. We didn't.  We never lost one. But you want to try? To most of them they say: No. But looks like they want to try on this one."
