[Calpernia]

The USA was founded by Pioneers and grew to what it is today from entrepreneurialism. Part of the American dream was to come here, be free and OWN your own business.

Now adays, these large corporations (most of them) are nothing more than mini regime conditioning.

The Board of Directors keeps all the wealth and throws enough 'perks' to the employees to keep them coming back. Not much different than ShareCroppering.

Between corporate conditioning and our educational system, people from the babyboomer generation and on don't even know how to start and run a business.

WorldCom, Tyko, Enron, Global Crossing, Qwest, and more are just as much the crooks and a harm to our traditional values of the USA.

I am relieved, that at least someone in Texas knows what's happening......
