Our great nation was founded on principles of individual freedom, liberty and opportunity, NOT corporate freedom, liberty and opportunity. The excesses of unbridled, laissez-faire Capitalism can be just as oppressive of individual freedom and opportunity as authoritarian Communism.

So you would be in favor of NO trade laws for individuals? Ok, lets go for that.

I realize that you are a Naderite Democrat anti corporation populist so I'll ask you to go down that road instead of going against your "religion".

Sounds precisely like what a fascist says. It becomes more clear everyday where you are coming from.

With the same results: poverty in the hoi-polloi, wealth among the elites.

Not a co-incidence, by the way.
