The Corporatistas are at the Gates

Actually they're already inside the gates, and they're selling them off to the highest bidder, while claiming they took a loss on the deal so they can avoid their taxes. Such is the state of American business. From recent news, it is obvious that the corps want all of the benefits of living in and selling to, the United States, but they don't want any of the responsibilities that go along with it -- like paying taxes. I can understand the desire to limit tax liability. I pay a fair amount in taxes myself, and I know how much use I cn put that money to, but I also like good roads, schools, and clean water. There's obviously a balance somwhere. Big Busines no longer seems to see it that way.

I've been saving articles and anecdotes about recent corporate scandals for an omnibus Corporate scandal issue of The Daily Rant, but I just can't take it anymore, so I decides to expound on a few choice issues, and wrap things up with a Big Business/Walmart Rant sometime in the next couple of weeks. I could probbaly rant about Walmart enough to fill a month's worth of pages, but that would get old pretty soon.
