Re: Will Americans ever, EVER catch on to these venal bastards? They never did in the past, so I wouldn't count on it in the future. The only time that the corporation really had their sails trimmed was in the administrations of Teddy and particularly Franklin Roosevelt. That "traitor to his class" gave us 40 of the best economic years of America's existence. Merely by trying (with some success) to keep American capitalist pigs honest. Left to their own devices since the advent of Ronnie Reagan's laisse faire regime, capitalism seems to have perpetrated a myriad assortment of creative ways of running amok. *** BTW, all who have an interest in this subject matter should take a peek at David Cay Johnston's "Perfectly Legal: The Covert Campaign to Rig Our Tax System to Benefit the Super Rich - and Cheat Everybody Else". amazon.com
