Guys, you are worrying about the wrong civil war.
Once Kerry has won the office, we have a war to wage. But, it's not rightards against the Libs, it's the Left against the corporations.

KnowhutImean?

2. All businesses are required to incorporate.
You really do yourself and your cause a disservice by declaring yourself against all business.

ARE you against all business?

Maybe you want to take a minute or two and clarify your position.

BTW, have you ever run a business?

4. Yes, I want all businesses to close.
Oh, really.

Now, I am sure that you understand that what I am refering to are the giant globalist concerns attempting to enslave our nation and our people. But, since I did not specify, I gave you a chance to take a shot.

My bad.

18. All businesses are NOT required to incorporate
I have run several of my own, and not a single one of them was a corporation.

There are many "businesses" that are not incorporated.

Try thinking 2030 instead of 1930

7. There are no businesses
attempting to 'enslave' your country.

Why are you always living in the past?

The glory days of the union are over.

And a global business is far more vulnerable to the market, than a strictly national one.

You have to change with the times, not fight some old socialism thing with outdated rhetoric, from over half a century ago.

16. He is not talking about the union or the past. Go see "The Corporation".
Or think about how much legislation has been passed for the benefit of corporations, as compared to legislation for the benefit of people.

17. As a futurist, I am curious as to the details of your projection
Are you talking resources?
tech/ethics issues?
global population?

etc etc?
And are these new issues necessarily total replacements for the old, or a new frame on old cycles of power shifts, or more than that?

Rather than just knock someone for fighting old paradigm, please elaborate.
It could be a good discussion, and one of many we will need to have once we get JK through the door.

8. If this is what you mean...
more reform of campaign finance laws, eliminate the acceptance of gifts from corporations for any campaign or political party expenditures, increase public funding.

Reform media regulations, reintroduce a fairness doctrine combined with public time for campaigns.

If thats what you mean I agree. :)
