With that kind of wake up call, no job is safe train of thought, things could improve

In the last 2 years we have been piling on new laws and regulations that will not help the US.

corruptisima re publica plurimae leges
only a bit of latin, but because logic and rhetoric were perfected by the romans, latin is often used to describe things like logical fallacies. It's a technical term in rhetoric. post hoc ergo propter hoc

because the corporations are "super-people", with all the privilidges of a real person, but few of the liabilities, and they cannot be imprisoned or executed for crimes like a real person, it's appropriate to regulate them, and we should regulate them far more than we do.

but we wont, because the corporations control the country now, so most "regulations" are really legal tricks to funnel them wealth and extra powers. the recent health care package, for example, was a sham, a way to relieve the corporations from health care costs by funneling tax money to other corporations. the corporations wanted that health care package so they could push health care costs off their books, and becaus ethey are in control, they got exactly the package they wanted.

pretty much exactly like what bush did with medicare part b.

if you think your side can control them or use them to your benefit, you are deluding yourself.

however, I believe that if your side wins the country will collapse even faster, and I want that, so please do win.
