A Lamp For Diogenes!

Diogenes was a unique character! It would be a mistake not point out that he could have been the most sloven individual to walk the earth, while at the same time he was attempting to point out the human foibles that many of us suffer. He is probably best known for walking around with a lamp with the designed intent of finding just one honest person. The purpose of this new thread is to point out individuals, corporations and organizations that Diogenes doesn't have to waste his time shining his lamp on to find out their place in the journey of humankind. It isn’t my intent to identify and discuss individual national political leaders as there wouldn’t be enough space on the internet to point those out. One goal is to give constant updates of monetary fines those individuals, corporations, and organizations have levied against them because of their attempts to circumvent our judicial system. Of utmost interest will be attempts to identify misdeeds against our nation’s citizens as a whole. There will be no attempt to slant those being identified as to their political affiliation. History has shown there will be enough from all political sides not to worry about finding a balance to these demagogues.

I welcome an open debate on the issues and corrections for any misapplication of the identified parties. I would also appreciate the assistance in identifying those entities that one might find in their area that would fall under the court decisions that find them paying monetary retribution for their actions against our citizens.

Always remember that a complacent society is one that has historically been used by political parties to abuse their power. Governments and corporations love it when citizens just throw up their hands and say, “I can’t do anything about what is going on, so why should I bother?”
