It sure does not even seem right that good business's go down for the sake
of some stockholders squeezing out higher gain.
I keep having this foggy notion that runs along this line…
Capitalism needs some how to have democracy inside of its system…. Instead
of outside.
We can throw all the laws we want at Big Corporations to try to make them
tow a fair line.
They will just keep chucking them off if they choose.
That is why we hear so much propaganda about getting the government off of
our backs. (Their backs)
Remember…We are the government…. In Theory anyway.
Corporations when started agree to a set of standards that they should
live up to or they lose their charter…. This is after all where the public
interest has rooted representation in the beginning. At the outset of our
country the founders (I believe) attempted to lay the seed for business to
not get out of hand…A few hundred years have given the High Financial
interests time to make changes to complicate things in the laws, essentially
taking us back to square one…We are collectively distracted while high
profit institutions catch the attention of the people we elect to represent
us…Who is the government now?
The Colonies were just the supply end for the charters on the receiving end
in England.
They were milking us dry and if you go to England and check out those fancy
castles that were all set up nice for the dandies then maybe you can get a
picture of where the average workers money was going in the time of
Queens/Kings.
And so with CEO's having it their way we see the same trend now…as then…. In
a hundred years we'll be touring their estates…and probably paying money to
get in too…The Bill Gates fun house in Seattle for example.
To me this whole nasty Big Corporate take over trend will not get any better
until representation, accountability and forms of redress are within the
corporate being itself.
