How do you recommend we go about taming corporate power while trying to remain competetive?

Very good question, and like most of the good questions, I don't have a good answer to it. My concern is that any form of power can be abused. When corporations get too powerful, one gets anticompetitive behavior. I like what Elliot Spitzer is trying to do. His view is that some regulation keeps markets competitive. He is trying to change corporate culture so that honest businessman can be honest without penalty. I think we all suffer when corporations can get away with fraud.

I din't answer your question, because your question is actually much bigger than the part I've answered. But we have to start somewhere.
