ladies, please...
I do hate some corporate profits because corporate profits are not a societal nor general economic good in and of themselves.
if that makes me a commie...fine whatever. but I think you'll find that communism in practice looks a lot like a corporate plutocracy.

"Police protection" is an oxymoron. Gun laws are like masturbation, they both feel really good, but after you're done you realize you haven't accomplished anything."

You don't need a bunch of charts, graphs, etc, to track poverty. Just look at the number on the evergrowing welfare rolls. Without even looking I can say today's number is way bigger then the 60s. Our golden era was probably between 1945 to 1975. And we're not likely to invent some god damm gizmo thats going to save the day. Well, unless it destroys greed and corruption. Not very pretty, but thats the way it is.
The hardest part of doing nothing is knowing when your done.
