1. amen, amen, amen . . . the REAL issue -- the one that no one wants . . .
to address (either Democrats or Republicans) is how corporations have come to control virtually everything aspect of our government, from "regulating" their own industries to actually running our entire election process . . . THAT's where the change has to happen . . .

unfortunately, NO elected official is even broaching the subject, and likely won't as long as they're relying on deep corporate pockets to fund their campaigns . . . the first presidential candidate to renounce all corporate contributions is the one I'll support . . .

2. "Corporatism is Fascism.." Bonito Mussolini the Reich Wing should not
be called 'compassionate conservatives', because they are actually 'Friendly Fascists', i am sure they can spin Fascism into a positive talking point.

i am going to get a bar code tattooed on my neck.. maybe on the back of my left hand with the numbers under the lines will be 066600666006660

Fascism is a relationship between corporate business and government. during the mergermania in the 80's the corporations bought all the publishers. the dictionaries have all been changed as to the definition of Fascism. in the new ones it is simply described as the government of Italy 1934-46~
...hiding in plain sight, they have even managed to change the general defination of Liberal.. it actually means those that believe in change through the democratic method..Voting
