Hey denuseri, you know all those times you've complained about my throwing religion into every conversation? Well, you're doing the same thing with the Corporations.

Don't like the corporations? Think about what happens if we do what you've suggested here. Everybody in the country gets a few dollars in their pockets. But what will they spend it on? Not cars, certainly. No corporations to build them. Not computers, either. Better spend it on food, because without the transportation companies food's going to run short pretty quickly. You can forget about watching television, or traveling half-way across the country to see your family. That XM radio you bought might make a good paperweight. Won't be anything to listen to anyway. And you won't have a job, either. Plenty of time to work on that home garden, planting plenty of vegetables so you won't starve too quickly. And of course, you'll have to fortify your home, because without the taxes from the corporations, and from the people they once employed, there won't be any police or fire or ambulance services.

So quit complaining. If you don't like them, don't buy their products. Don't use their services. And if you want a chunk of their money, start your own business, become one of them. See if you can do better than the people who are there now. I'm guessing you can't, but hey, I've been known to be wrong.

Once.

A long time ago.
