I have been criticized here on FR for saying big business is as dangerous as big government. They go hand in hand, one needs the other.................

It's like I said during the bailouts, a company that is "Too Big To Fail" is in essence a Government company because the taxpayers are on the hook if it fails. That's why I am all for rigid enforcement of Anti-Trust laws. And the Government has been asleep at the switch for decades.

You get to a certain level of bigness and you become more LIKE a government. I work for a big corp and the red tape and “this is the way it’s done even though it’s stupid” is really horrible, plus they pile on liberal “culture” that’s at times vomit-inducing. I only took the job because I can’t drive in the dark anymore and it’s close to home. I’ll be moving to a nice, small town in a much more conservative state at the end of the year, thank goodness!

This would include big talk radio.

Seems this day and age, “capitalism” is uttered when “corporatism” is meant.
