For some reason, we accept that corporations reason to exist is " maximize profits'. That is asking for trouble. There is nothing about doing no harm. There is no responsibility to the country, the environment or employees. Just max those priofits. it is a blueprint for cheating and spoiling the envirionment. It is asking for a company to cheat the employees out of everything they can. American capitalism is flawed and by definition creates a tension between them and the country. It is an adversarial system where the government has to fight them to do the right thing.
We already have extensive regulations for nuclear power plants and criminal laws for prosecuting corporate crimes. To want to shut down Amazon or similar corporations is just crazy. And, since many posters believe the rich and powerful are running the government, any actions would be benefiting them at the expense of the public good. They want to give more power to those they already think are not doing a good job. As it is, many government regulations already serve the purpose of reducing competition or establishing secure markets for certain interests.
Power to control is not the same thing as arbitrarily wanting to shut down Amazon like some of the posters from this thread. And, who has that control and why are they making that decisions. Again, if one adopts (the somewhat simplistic) view that the rich and powerful and corporations are controlling the government, won't they use that power for their own benefit?
No we don't. they are sham. They are not regulation for the people but for the company. Every regulation gets passed by politicians who get money from the industries. The also get corporate lobbyists pressuring them. Real regulation that would protect us is extremely rare and under great pressure by the corporations.
Congrats, you were able to respond correctly to the opening post!
A magic wand that you can wave to make one of the top 1% of corporations disappear is obviously just a hypothetical and fun thing, but I suspected that many lefties might enjoy using it. I have noticed over the years that lefties often refer to big corporations as evil, but I was wondering if lefties would actually use it if they had a chance. Looks like I was mistaken.why would you think anyone would[
If I understand you correctly, it sounds like you would be ok with keeping them in place AS THEY ARE NOW, but you would like to see legislation that would make them into workhorses that would generate wealth to redistribute to the non productive class. Is this correct?I would like to see them taxed and regulated in a way that profits the entire nation
The Truth Does Not Need To Be Supported With Censorship.
Love corps, Trump is your man. what he did to net neutrality is designed to make the righties happy. I bet all you righties are still celebrating that corporate give away. Trump FCC is an arm of telecoms. Isn't that special.
