Oh silly me. It's only the stuff that's hard for liberals and the poor, working and middle classes that matters.

If My instincts are wrong about what we are likely to winld up with, I'll acvknowledge it.
All I am saying is that if we're supposed top finally do tjings t that are difficult, how about trimming the sails of those mega corpirations and oligarchs who long ago hijacked our nation.

8. K & R. Start with abolishing corporate personhood and shredding |
|
the corporate veil. Of course, nobody in Congress except maybe your avatar and a few others would dare to suggest such a thing. That might decrease their campaign contributions. :puke:

10. I didn't say destroy corporations |
|
But they need to be tamed.
Corporations are not the mid and lower level people who work forcthem. Often those employees are just as victimized by the managerial, oligarcharchs in charge as the rest of us...Often more so.
