Corporations have helped to destroy our culture of traditional values and bribed our elected officials, thus corrupting our entire political process. They put their international interests ahead of what is good for America. Corporations are bad for Main Street.

MSNBC and msnbc.com were founded in 1996 by Microsoft and GE’s NBC unit. All to spread lies and elect Obama.

Corporations have helped to destroy our culture of traditional values and bribed our elected officials, thus corrupting our entire political process.

Most corporations, up until the 1970's, if you got a divorce, it was a pretty good chance that you'd be shown the door. While I'm sure there's 'evil' corporations, for the most part they share a lot of traditional values, of wanting a smaller government, of wanting less taxes, and less restrictions. Aside from the 'non-profit' political corporations who actively promote the liberal agenda, most corporations are conservative in nature.

Unfortunately, the thing that feeds the most on the corporation, is the thing that most wants to destroy traditional values, that being the union. And of everything, unions have tremendous political clout, being able not only to deliver bribes and kickbacks, but also votes. A few corporations might have wanted to offer benefits for domestic shacking up, but most didn't want to until forced by the unions to extend it to extremes, including homosexuals. Why? Because it costs corporations money.

Ironically, unions have also become one of the largest investing entities, so kill their own investments with their extraordinary demands.

They put their international interests ahead of what is good for America.

By far, corporations need stability to be most profitable. Do you think a corporation looks at putting a manufacturing plant in Mexico or Indonesia for stability? They do it because every time they build a successful plant or industry in the US, the unions kill it. They make it so unprofitable that relocating to another part of the world is desirable, and that takes quite an effort, especially since most of the rest of the world requires more than campaign contributions, but outright bribery of local police on up to the highest levels of government.

Corporations are bad for Main Street.

A generality that ignores that the most populous corporation is one that involves small business, and you'll find that corporations are the second most common business model for mom and pop businesses. Stop buying the liberal propaganda put forward by the socialist and opportunistic pariahs that are the unions.

MSNBC and msnbc.com were founded in 1996 by Microsoft and GE’s NBC unit.

MSNBC was created because NBC wanted into the news channel market, but GE was operating with limited funds, thus needing a partner, and Microsoft was facing tremendous pressure to buy a media company at the time. The compromise that made MSNBC was effectively abandoned by Microsoft was soon as it came into being. Microsoft wants to make money, and MSNBC will never make money on it's own.

All to spread lies and elect Obama.

Wow, you mean this whole thing I've been responding to has been parody? Because no one knew of the nobody that was Obama back when MSNBC was created. And if you're saying the Gates family wanted to put in rabid liberals, than you've pretty much ignored what the Gates family has done with their money. They know that private charity is more cost effective and productive than government involvement, and the vast majority of their pressure is on other well heeled families to put their money to use, and not leave it to the kids.

If you look at the leaders of the most successful corporations out there, they at least pretend to be examples of the nuclear family, and I would have a hard time naming a successful leader of a corporation who espouses and lives the deviant homosexual lifestyle. I don't have that problem with the Hollyweird contingent nor the 'entertainment industry' as a whole.

You're welcome to blame the corporations, but a corporation can't deliver votes, only money, and money they have to answer to their shareholders for, whereas unions can freely take from those they represent and give it away with near impunity.
