Del, Total capitalism is impossible, as is total socialism. We're all somewhere in between. One of the main jobs of the political system is deciding where in between we ought to be. The political system often fucks it up, but I'd much rather have us talk it out and decide, as a group, no matter how inefficient, then to have some appointed saviour get up and tell us what to do. The mergers don't bother me. Look at the Korean Chaebol. Sooner or later they will collapse of their own weight. Monoliths are really not more efficient, in politics or economics. Steve

Del, What you are seeing is the New World Order consolidating before your eyes. Our government is now the servant of business interests, not the people as never before. It's multinational corporations gobbling up whole sections of the economies of the world until it's all under one umbrella run by a surprisingly few ultra super rich elitists. The New World Order is their dream to control it all. It couldn't be done with guns, but it could be done with money, power and influence. Bob
