someone has to put the disgusting levels of greed in this country in check, if it takes a constitutional amendment to do that, i say lets do it. you can not convince me that its fair that there are people pocketing BILLIONS of dollars a year in personal wealth while there are others living in dirt floored ramshackle houses, and others owing more then they will ever make in their lifetime, in our country. we can not continue down this path of stacking all the money in one corner and allowing the disproportional spread of wealth to keep going this way, this will take us right back to a place we left once before, history has shown it can not work. im all for capitalism but at this point its far beyond acceptable levels. the extremely large corporations and wealthy businessmen have cannibalized on their own countrymen long enough.

just because there isn't a law against things doesn't make them right, many of these companies and their operators are criminals. if morals wont stop them, maybe the law can. im not for more laws, entirely the opposite, but something or someone has to reign these swine in. unfortunately it most likely wont happen until we clean up campaign finance and start limiting the time officials can spend in DC. i do not support socialism(totally), marxism or any other crap, but its glaringly obvious that this system is not working.
