WE the corporations... 0 Comments
I realize there aren't too many here interested in politics and/or the law, but something happened today that should be of great interest to all of us.
The Supreme Court ruled that without limitations, corporations have the same rights as individual people. In a system already corrupt with greed and power, the Court has handed the rich and powerful the final element needed for eventual complete and total control of our government. We see it already today with soaring insurance corporation stocks on the news that health care reform is DOA. A modest estimate has the health care lobby giving over 60 Million dollars in the past year to politicians to fight reform. Is this democracy, is this what we fight and die for?
In any case, for those who'd like to hear a bit more about just how bad this could become here's a link to last nights "Special Comment" by Keith Olbermann. To be taken with a grain of salt, but worth the listen.

Never, a dull moment.
