Thank you for your kind reply. The face of the Corporation changes slightly with whom ever is at it's head at the moment. President Bush is a corporate executive with some true patriotism to him. His speech, just delievered in China though indicates he is very much the corporate executive.

I cannot go to bed on 9/10 worried about the direction our nation is heading, and wake up to 9/11 thinking that all of a sudden, we as a nation, are all headed in the same direction and with the same goals. At present our goals are mutual survival, we are doing more to insure the Corporations survival than they are doing about insuring ours, as evidenced by our still open borders and insane 30 million visa's of one kind and another issued.

The Corporation will only apply the lightest bandaid unless we raise a huge fuss about them not living up to their end of the mutual survival endeavor.

I can not argue with you. Wonder if the Founding Fathers ever even considered the ramifications of 10,000 multinational corporations turned loose upon the world with no allegience to anything but profit? Probably not. Look up for your redemption draweth nigh.
