[Vision2020] Speaking of Chutzpah . . .

[deb]

OOOHKAAAY. And revenue comes from who? Since the corporations are now the 
sole (soul?) owners of everything in the US, and fund all our politicians, 
how exactly does this make us different from nations which are basically 
owned by the rich and get income from the labor of the poor? We have already 
become a second nation, this crap would make us third world ready. I suppose 
it was inevitable, given the history of "free" nations and their eventual 
take-over by the wealthy. Just want to know who our "Royalty" will be...Bush 
Family? MegaCorp Sons of the New Biz Order? It could be fun projecting who 
our new overlords might be.....might be the ONLY fun for a very long 
time....
