That is correct. Not in this case. The links provided by Chris Parsons prove nothing but the fact that several US large corporations while under performing heavily are (still) run by over compensated incompetent executives. Question: Did you personally feel a need for links to tell you that? Or were you maybe already aware of this truth, well documented by the press as it has been for years? Taro

The problem is, you provide NO links to support your argument. Huh? Enjoy the reading. If it gets to complicated you could always ask Ted for help. This is the kind of stuff he deals with daily.

I'm NOT advocating communism, by the way. Nice "strawman"! Well your not advocating that the government own the businesses but you are advocating that they have control over the businesses in many ways similar to what an owner would have. Your advocating that the government control the companies payroll structure. I'm not sure you would stop there but even if you do, it might not be classical communism, but it has some similarities to communist thought. It certainly doesn't respect the property rights of the corporate owners.
