As opposed to your long rants?

Uh, dude, corporations could you know, stop offering the bribes perhaps and compete in a "free" market.
Quote:Business owners are private, government employees are public servants. Our public servants would rather take bribes and screw the people.
Corporations would rather give bribes and screw the people. Unethical behavior is unethical behavior whether private corporation of public servant. I blame both. You only blame one.
Quote:Government, at least in America is supposed to work FOR us, not against us. That is the dang problem. But they have been telling you its all the corps fault lol. Of course. Keep buying it too. Keep giving them more and more power. Have fun with it. Nothing has changed in that way in a long long time. People are still trying to fight the wrong people and meanwhile its not getting any better. Doh!
This is generic, bullshit rhetoric. Give me one example I have given "them" more and more power.
Quote:Well once more people actually wise up and go after the people who they are actually the bosses of, things might change.
Bosses? As in one who directs and supervises workers? Those bosses? Excellent observation.
Quote:But nope. You guys would rather give the government MORE power and give your power up. Its astonishing to me, that folks think this way. People seem to think government is really looking out for you first lol. In reality, an this has been proven over and over, they are looking out for the highest bidder.
Bidding . . .
"Bidding is an offer (often competitive) of setting a price one is willing to pay for something or a demand that something be done.[1] A price offer is called a bid. The term may be used in context of auctions, stock exchange, card games, or real estate. Bidding is used by various economic niche for determining the demand and hence the value of the article or property, in today's world of advance technology, Internet is one of the most favourite platforms for providing bidding facilities, it is the most natural way of determining the price of a commodity in a free market economy."
In other words, capitalism.
Quote:Lawmakers are abusing their power. Why give them more power? Thats all folks like Bernie would ever do. He wants to talk about the corruption, but on the other hand wants to create an environment where it would even get worse and the public has less power to do anything about it.
Some lawmakers are abusing their power. Some lawmakers are unethical. That doesn't excuse the unethical behavior of the corporations.
Social Security and Medicare are social programs, not socialism. Not a single person in this thread has advocated for socialism. Your tilting at windmills in your imagination.
