I don't think that means 100% corrupt, but when Corps have now been given the same rights as me and you, but can't be head legally liable for the choices they make, like and you.. then it is without question that our wealth was stolen, hell.. it was given to them and stolen.

When a normal man goes to prison for screwing up us loan documents and the company that gave him the loan, that plead guilty to pushing the b.s. loans goes clean and free, and he robbed us blind... the message of "all wealth is aggregated in a few hands" is happening right now.

It's funny and sad... the rich, wealthy, elites aren't the 200k to a few billion a year people, these guys got 400 billion, 800 billion, etc bailouts, and some got 100's of millions in return money, after sucking the markets dry, and getting all money lost covered, and they get to retain ownership of the properties after they're responsible for causing the damn mess.

They won 1000% over, no part lost at any level... and if you didn't get caught up in the mess at any level, you still lost out, in some way.. that's screwed up!

The major corps have more liquid cash/assets right now, than ever in the history of our Country, even at our largest peaks, and then... they just got more.

President Lincoln's quote, is happening, it happened several years back, and it continues today.

And now, they're just doing it right in front of us, while giving us the finger.
isn't that more due to how our government is currently running? when whoever has the most money wins the election, corps are the ones who head the list of *contributions* seems to me whatever needs fixing with corps would be more than simple if the government was not in the way/on the side of them.
