Well…I was laughing my butt off a few minutes ago when I read an article in the Washington Post that covered the new round of extortion that is being foist on the public by many of the biggest corporations in the US. These shameless thieves are claiming that they are ready, willing, and able to create jobs if they just get some teensy little concessions in regulations…like being able to write the regulations that cover the oil and gas industry or the ability of the telecom industry to continue to consolidate until there is just one huge carrier that can then steal even more from the public. These thieves are even saying that when they merge, it will create jobs….never mind that the primary reasons for these mergers are higher profits by the reduction of redundancies….which, in corporatespeak means that jobs will be cut, not created. When are we, as a country, going to stop letting these greedy idiots steal everything? Geez….
