“Thats where big government should start”
...why should they, that would only mean that there dividends would shrink?
True enough, I believe they view us largely as tools for revenue. The one thing that those those in Government fear above all else is being thrown out of office, before they can be useful to the corporations who put them there. If they are useful to the corporations who put them there, then they have lucrative opportunities in the lobbying business.
