That’s one of the most foolish statements I’ve heard in here. Do you, for one minute, think that hard working Americans don’t see what is going on around them? Do you believe that working America doesn’t care about those things? You don’t stop what you don’t like by sticking your head in the sand. You do, however, go to work for companies that fit your moral values. If you don’t, then your values are aren’t any better than theirs. I’ve ridden in the corporate jets, attended the fancy conventions, purchased the nice cars and homes but never gave up my values and always tried to instill good working values in my employees and treated them very well. It all boils down to what you want out of life. It can’t all be place on the backs of the corporations. If you work for a large corporation, you ARE that corporation. Sure the presidents and CEO’s get large salaries but who gives them the sarlaries? The stock holders........that’s most likely people just like you and me.
Really? Talk about foolish. So Morgan Stanley is just like you and me. Wow. Yesterday, they threw in the towel at the NYT because for years the CEO, Pinchy, wouldn't listen to them.
Another thing that has irked me is the recent passage in the senate to overhaul patent rights. It favors international corporations at the expense of the little guy in a garage. Now any well funded corporation, and the Chinese and Indians, can see an inventor's secrets and beat him in the filing process. When I read you the riot act, I was listing the corrupt faults of corporations. Corrupt capitalism is a throwback to the beginnings of the industrial revolution. Is that your idea of the common good? I don't know about you, but I would much rather live in a free market free of corrupt corporations.
