If a Corporation is "Too Big to Fail", Then It Is TOO BIG!!!!

[tekisui]

We need to bust these giants up instead of busting the Treasury FOR them!!

Goddamn, what a mess.

2. EXACTLY......

As Thom Hartmann always says, these corporations need to be broken up into smaller entities.

3. What its really a sign of is failed tax policy.

The method to make sure that no company ever becomes so large that it is vital to the country is by taxing them so they can't grow so large. Besides, we are safer with a multitude of companies performing vital services, not just one or two giants - do not put all of your national eggs in one basket, particularly if you have no intention of guarding that basket.

4. The few just took that basket of eggs and made a big ass omelet.

And, reached into our refrigerator to grab our eggs.

6. Robber Barons redux, circa 1980-2008.

Remember when the government broke up Ma Bell, because it was way too big?

Remember when the government didn't allow giant mergers?

Remember when when MONOPOLIES (Comcast) were considered a BAD thing?
