a very intelligent response. I can see right through the deception. To make the claims corporations are being oppressed in this country is ridiculous. There are Wars and discontent all over this World because people are discontented with their lives. The problem are people hoarding individual wealth and the resources. That is what causes revolutions, if you know the definition of the word. Why should the American people accept Blackmail, when the resources of this country belongs to them? The American people can just take what they want really and put better people in charge. Then who will be out of a job and on the streets? They are only stewards of the economy. Those people don't make a single car, or teach a single pupil. The American people can just fire the people running every corporation in this country and freeze their assets. We can even strip the clothes off their backs and send them on their way to what ever destination they desire, if they can pay for it.
