This is from 2002 but bears re-posting.

This is the present and future of America.

Very well balanced and good. Another huge problem is that enough is never enough. People in sales are pushing for ever higher quotas and demanding more and more and more out of their employees. Plus people demanding ever lower prices for high quality goods. Then there’s the pressure to have the latest and greatest things. So much stuff getting thrown out and wasted and more and more pressure is mounting for no concievable reason.

Yeah lets make up new words for things.

We no longer have politicians, we now have dumbass-a-ticians.

To fight ‘corporatism’, you need small businesses. It’s harder to control 15M small businesses.

President Bush pushed small business/ownership. (Against the tide, IMHO)
President Obama promises ‘loans’ for small bidness. (Debt is slavery.)

Institutions are held by the ‘progressives’.

Very good anaylsis.....but kinda missed the fact that Free Trade is corporatist...especially with the Free Trade Agreements signed (NAFTA, CAFTA, WTO). These trade deals put limits on some businesses, and give subsidies to corporations that ship jobs and wealth overseas....at the expense of American companies who continue to invest and grow in America

Most analysis leave out the negative economic impact of Free Trade, and, the amount of wealth shipped out of America...often at taxpayer expense.

Corporatism is better described as Business Socialism.....and is not capitalist or based on real free market.

Thanks for posting this.

I don't think that I've ever read anything by Locke that I didn't agree with 100%.

I love the way it gets the ignorant right (see some of the comments in this thread) to go apoplectic.

Heaven forfend if GWB or the Republican party or our wonderful corporations ever did anything anti-conservative.

Oooh we gots to be the first one to label anything we don't like 'socialism'!
