Oh, horsecrap. Try reading both past history and current events. Folks like you who think corporations can do no wrong are useful idiots for those corporations, quite frankly.

I never said corporations can do not wrong.

Don't lie about me because you are a big-gov't, pro-regulation closet liberal.

Don't like it when I put words in your mouth, do you?

The fact remains that you cannot refute the premise that corporations would not care as much about government if government could not affect their bottom line.

I'm not. I stand by my comments that folks like you are a useful idiot for corporate fascism by your pretending that it's all the fault of government. We saw the practical limits of anti-regulation dogma reached last year - for example, the exemption of credit default swaps from regulation and the lack of regulation of ratings agencies. But some folks refuse to learn from both history and current events.

The fact remains that you cannot refute the premise that corporations would not care as much about government if government could not affect their bottom line.

Google Archer-Daniels Midland and Enron and get back to me.
