The list of criminal and sometimes fatal actions by big corporations today, Todays corporations are not the same corps of decades past. These greed motivate machines are limitless in their dirty deeds and scumbaggery and the only thing between the little people and the Super Rich that run them is the GOVERNMENT. If it werent for Govt intervention and regulation these greedy entities would run havoc on majority of americans. Big banks stealing billions. Rick Scotts HCA stealing dozens up dozen of billions. The list of these scumbag entities just grows and grows. GM murdering people KNOWINGLY hiding that the autos they built were flawed and deaths occured.
Thank god for the govt thats all the little people have.
